OK, I found a link from Max pointing to:

http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/devices.html

and there is indeed a Billionton USB dongle listed out there with a CSR
chip, and hci_usb driver.  Maybe my luck is changing for the better!

I will post a full doc on this machine to Lukas Ertl's FreeBSD laptop

Thanks again Max!
