My particular affected keyboard/mouse is labeled Dell. It's a "Y-RAQ-DEL2" model . In actuality, the guts are Logitech, you can even read the logo on the PCB through the semi-transparent case of the dongle.
lsusb reports:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:0b02 Logitech, Inc. BT Mini-Receiver (HID proxy mode)
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:c70e Logitech, Inc. MX1000 Bluetooth Laser Mouse
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 046d:c70a Logitech, Inc. MX5000 Cordless Desktop
The dongle does have a button, a blue one. I have not tried to unpair they keyboard/mouse from the dongle, since I didn't get any real documentation with it, and am not sure I could get them re-paired. Unlike a Logitech packaged MX5000, the keyboard doesn't have an LCD.
It does start in HID mode, and the button suggests that I could switch it to HCI, but I doubt that I would ever be using this in HCI mode: first, I'm not certain how to pair it, and second, I'd need to switch back if I needed to do anything with the CMOS or grub. As is, it works 6 months at a time with Linux.
