Comment 31 for bug 249448

Actually, Device ID is mouse's (spelled correctly?) MAC address, kind of similar to network card's MAC address, meant to find the correct one in a sea of devices. Every device has different one.

I have Dell Inspiron 1525 and a Logitech V470 mouse, the combination of was also affected by this bug.

Switching visibilty to 'Always' on inital device connection made it reconnect on reboot. Worked for days now, I was happy. But since today's updates (2008-10-22) it doesn't work anymore. In fact, it doesn't even show on the device list in bluetooth preferences. Also, the preference screen freezes instantly when i open it and the wizard won't even find my mouse this time.
