Comment 37 for bug 343727

Hi,

I'm running a HP Pavilion TX2522AU
Architecture: amd64
Mouse: MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 Beta
Package: bluez

Output of "lsusb | grep Bluetooth":
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module]

I have the same problem where pairing via the Bluetooth Manager (bluetooth-applet) reports pairing successful, but my mouse (MS Bluetooth Mouse 5000) remains in "pairing mode" (light alternating flashing green + red).

I tried the suggestion of Abais to run:
$ sudo hidd --search

What i found is that if this command is run while the mouse is NOT still pairing that it fails with "Searching ...
 No devices in range or visible"

HOWEVER, if the command "sudo hidd --search" is run from the command line immediately after the bluetooth-applet has reported pairing successful but while the mouse is still remaining in "pairing mode" (light alternating flashing green + red), then the hidd search command is successful and the mouse is recognized and pairs correctly!

Many thanks to abais!!

Can this fix somehow be incorporated into Jaunty at this late stage?

Thanks,
Slade.
