Looks like your Bluetooth controller does not support RSSI with Inquiry.

Um, I'm not sure how FreeBSD hccontrol works, but it looks that you can
get the device features list with 'read_local_supported_features' command
to hccontrol?

The version I have here doesnt look to know about the "RSSI with Inquiry"
feature, which would be indicated by bit 6 (0x40) in byte 3 of the
features report.

Note, that "RSSI with Inquiry" is not the same as "RSSI" - I think the
latter is just for the Read_RSSI command and you must be already connected
for that (need connection handle)
