HP Z8000 bluetooth mouse

[maxiclo]

This mouse is a HID over GAT recent HP low power mouse.

It is recognized as ALL types bluetooth peripherals not as a mouse!

The mouse at the end of the installation process (automatic pin selection) results as PAIRED but the connection option is not available in the bluetooth setting dialog.

UBUNTU is last 14.04 full updated at filing bug time.

The image refers to T540p paired and trusted.

I could not pair the Z8000 mouse to 12.04 LTS. Importatnt to mention, the desktop sometimes freezes during the pairing.

The bluez version is: 4.98-2ubuntu7.2.
The laptop is an HP Envy TouchSmart 15.

I was able to connect other Bluetoth mouses to the op. system except the reported HP Z8000 mouse.

Identical to bug description with ASUS X551CA and HP Z8000 usb mouse. The HP mouse shows up as "All types" not as mouse, paired successfully using automatic and custom pin 0000. Never shows as connected. Currently using an apple might mouse with no problems at all. Major difference here is I'm running Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon.

[Curtis Penner (curtis.penner)]

Similar to Bela Berczi (bberczi). This was on a new HP Envy 13t. It works fine with Windows 10, but will only connect as "All Types", and will not work as a mouse, on the 14.04.3 release.
