I had the same problem with Jaunty Beta (Microsoft notebook 5000 for my Netbook Samsung NC-10)
I've solved the problem :

1) install the bluez-compat package with terminal

sudo apt-get install bluez-compat

2)Pair the mouse with the bluetooth manager. The manager will say that the pairing is "successfull"
Although the mouse won't worked... this step has to be down...

3) In the terminal, type :

sudo hidd --search

You should see something like

Searching ...
Connecting to device 00:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (your mouse MAC)

Done. Your mouse should be working now.
