[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328260] Re: mighty mouse bluetooth not pairing
A decent OS would just pair with a mouse and implement the workaround or structurally fix the bug. The bug is confirmed, so it's up to someone to fix it. Complain at the mouse vendor or at the developer and pick your hardware carefully and Linux is fun and nice. I reported this bug almost 2 years ago on an LTS release, I would have hoped for a fix by now. Instead I have a laptop that freezes now on the new soon to be released LTS. Had to rant a bit because I have had that a lot in the past. I don't see why a command line action is acceptable,for Linux to be great, these things should just work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328260 Title: mighty mouse bluetooth not pairing Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using the default GUI, I cannot pair my Apple Mighty Mouse.

I was also finally able to get an Apple "Magic Mouse" to work using the command line hack mentioned by the reporter, with Ubuntu 14.04. It's working on a Mac Mini, incidentally, which finally has a decent OS on it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328260 Title: mighty mouse bluetooth not pairing Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using the default GUI, I cannot pair my Apple Mighty Mouse.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328260] Re: mighty mouse bluetooth not pairing
I was getting this same thing with a Microsoft Designer Mouse but after running `bluez-simple-agent` and using pin the mouse pairs and the 'New Device Setup' says "Succesfully set up device 'Designer Mouse'" but it doesn't work. In the Bluetooth devices it says 'Paired Yes' but the 'switch' on Connection is set to OFF and is disabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328260 Title: mighty mouse bluetooth not pairing Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using the default GUI, I cannot pair my Apple Mighty Mouse.
