[Bug 343727] [NEW] [Jaunty] Cannot connect to a bluetooth mouse

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) Development Version and have all packages
update to date.

This is a ThinkPad T43 laptop and the bluetooth adapter as listed by
"lsusb | grep Bluetooth" is:

    Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:201e Broadcom Corp. IBM Integrated
Bluetooth IV

The mouse is a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000.

I use the "Setup a new device ..." option from the bluetooth applet on
gnome-panel. I also have to mouse switched into pairing mode. The wizard
dialog can detect my bluetooth mouse and it reports successful
connecting to the mouse but at this time the mouse is still in pairing
mode. (with previous Ubuntu the mouse should've returned to normal mode
after pairing). I have to manually switch the mouse off and on to let it
be in normal mode.

The Known devices list in Bluetooth Preferences dialog will show the
mouse with an "i" icon but the mouse won't work no matter how I adjust
the settings there.

I noticed if I use "sudo hcitool cc <address>" then the connect can
exist for 1 second or so because "sudo hictool con" will show an output
like "Connections:  < ACL 00:1D:D8:93:24:28 handle 6 state 1 lm MASTER"
but then the connection will drop.

When I manually start and stop the bluetooth adapter using "sudo
hciconfig hci0 down/up", the /var/log/syslog will show informaitons
like:

Mar 16 15:29:32 berlin bluetoothd[3753]: HCI dev 0 down
