Your problem appears to be with USB rather than Bluetooth, so I'd be Googling along those lines, in particular "device descriptor read/64, error -71" (remember to omit the minus on -71). If lsusb can't see it, there's little chance in bluez being able to. It may also help to add the chipset the computer has to the search string. I haven't encountered this problem myself, hope you resolve it! Hi John,

Unfortunately I already have good backup for Windows stuff, but it's always good to work with people that are flexible thinkers and willing to diverge from the "Microsoft way". I wish you all the best. Alex Hi David,

I’d completely forgotten about that post, actually had to stalk myself to find it again!

Unfortunately I already have good backup for Windows stuff, but it’s always good to work with people that are flexible thinkers and willing to diverge from the “Microsoft way”.

I wish you all the best.

I kind of google stalked you to this page from a random post on drupal about daily notices. Just wondering if you are having success in the Auckland market and whether you need a guy who's pretty good with the whole Windows side of things (I see you are coming from a more non-windows background where I've come from purely Windows stuff and only now getting into some unix stuff). Let me know what's haps, Cool David hey man,
