I've confirmed the problem with two different mice (MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse and Rocketfish Bluetooth Mouse), and neither of them will pair. I'm using 9.10, tried both gnome-bluetooth and bluez-gnome. I've tried kernels 2.6.31-20-generic and 2.6.31-19-generic (I think the MS mouse worked with -19). gnome-bluetooth reports that it can see both the MS and Rocketfish mice, "hcitool scan" shows the mice when they're discoverable, and gnome-bluetooth even reports that the Rocketfish mouse pairs successfully even though the pairing light on the mouse doesn't stop flashing. The old bluez-compat "hidd --search" workaround does not work for either mouse.
I can successfully pair my Windows 7 machine with this computer, so I know the Bluetooth adapter is working. I don't have any other devices to pair with other than the matching Rocketfish keyboard, but that is notoriously difficult to get paired with any machine, and I don't want to have to re-pair it with its intended computer (the Win7 machine). -- Bluetooth mouse stops working following normal shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/307349 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
