Yes, hidd comes from bluez-compat. Sorry for reporting to the wrong package. I 
am used to doing this from console and I couldn't find any other tool similar 
to hidd, so I installed bluez-compat. gnome-bluetooth is not the optimal 
solution for me as I am a kde user and kde-bluetooth does not work for some 
reason... Anyway, I will try doing this with gnome-bluetooth to see if this is 
a specific issue with hidd and will let you know.
