The problem with bluetooth v5 mouse is discussed in the forum:
https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=9055
We need the 'uhid' kernel module, so I have compiled the 6.6.47 kernel, with uhid builtin not as a module. The Gentoo wiki was used as a guide:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bluetooth
Comparing configuration of the 6.6.39 kernel (in EasyOS 6.1.1 and 6.2) with 6.6.47:
6.6.39 6.6.47
CONFIG_BT_HIDP=m CONFIG_BT_HIDP=y
CONFIG_INPUT_UINPUT=m CONFIG_INPUT_UINPUT=y
# CONFIG_UHID is not set CONFIG_UHID=y
But we do need to remember that "#UserspaceHID=true" has to be
uncommented in file /etc/bluetooth/input.conf, as documented by
the Fatdog guys. OK, done, have made that a permanent
change.
