K, I don't know if I'm going to be able to help you out.  hciconfig -a
doesn't have any output.  I think the bluetooth devices are mapped to
/dev/input/mouse*:

$ cd /dev/input/by-id
$ ll
$ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2008-07-25 01:11 usb-15c2_0038-event-mouse ->
../event1
$ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2008-07-25 01:11 usb-15c2_0038-mouse -> ../mouse1
$ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2008-07-25 01:11
usb-Logitech_Logitech_BT_Mini-Receiver_000761A42B60-event-kbd -> ../event2
$ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2008-07-25 01:11
usb-Logitech_Logitech_BT_Mini-Receiver_000761A42B60-event-mouse -> ../event3
$ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2008-07-25 01:11
usb-Logitech_Logitech_BT_Mini-Receiver_000761A42B60-mouse -> ../mouse2

and sudo /usr/sbin/hcidump -X -i /dev/input/mouse1 > 'test_mouse' has the
same "Can't open device: No such device" result.  I've tried with
mouse[0-3].  If you have any other suggestions let me know, otherwise maybe
someone else can help you out.
