>>See whether there's a "bluez-hcidump" package available for your system
and, if so, install it (and give me the full name of the package you
installed).

I found and installed "/usr/share/doc/bluez-hcidump-1.42"
Running this when there is some bluetooth activity gives me packet info....
as shown below....
