[Bug 318465] Re: Logitech MX5000 doesn't connect via bluetooth under ubuntu

[Schlameel]

I could not get this working in 8.x and when I upgraded to 9.04 it did
not fix anything for me.  However, I was able to do something a bit
unnatural to get it working without any hack or config change; I just
needed a wired keyboard.  I did try to clean up any config file changes
I had made then followed this process:

* I rebooted with a wired keyboard attached, so I could log in without putting the dongle in USB mode.  Once I logged in, I had a Bluetooth icon on the top panel.  
* I  clicked on the icon and selected the "Setup new device..." menu item which opened the "Bluetooth Device Wizard".   
* I pushed the red button on the back of the keyboard
* and clicked "Forward" in the Wizard
* I now saw the keyboard in the list  of devices and completed the wizard. 

Upon reboot, it took a few seconds at the login screen for the keyboard
to work, but work it did.

I don't know if a new install would automatically configure the
keyboard, or if my previous attempts to "fix" the problem in 8.x
prevented 9.04 from properly configuring the keyboard, or if Jaunty
still doesn't automatically set it up.  I would not call this fixed
because of the need for an additional wired keyboard.
