[Bug 343727] Re: [Jaunty] Cannot connect to a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000

[Jeff Rash]

I found the post below in Bug #284982, I did the first two commands.

$hcitool dev
Devices:
	hci0	00:16:41:96:77:64
$sudo hciconfig hci0 reset

Once it was reset bluez just picked up the mouse and started working.  I
guess that's because I had added it in the GUI before.  It also works
after I restart Ubuntu.  Please test and let me know what you discover
on your systems.
