[Bug 346111] Re: my "microsoft bluetooth notebook mouse 5000" doesnt work under Ubuntu 9.04, (it works well in Ubuntu 8.10)

My experience:

Samsung NC10 - Ubuntu Remix (9.04) - Microsoft Mouse 5000

First, follow this procedure:

http://blog.chinthaka.org/2008/09/getting-microsoft-bluetooth-mouse.html

until step 3 (included). Then, instead of step 4, install the bluez-compat package with synaptic: this package is deprecated by Canonical but it is working for now.
Next, proceed to step 4 of the guide but just before "sudo hidd --search" push the connect button on the mouse until the red/green light.

Working by two days with no problems.

Hope this help.
