    Hi

    I'm trying to pair the hp bluetooth mouse and have not had any success yet.
    Does anybody know, if there is a special code that will work. In the manual they explain how to manually pair in windows and it talks about turing the key off. I don't think that is possible on the n810.
    Any idea?

    I have an update

    I followed instructions on several webpages

    http://phone.cs.berkeley.edu/doku.ph...ject:bluetooth


    and installed:
    apt-get install bluez-utils-test
    apt-get install screen

    than I opened up a terminal window and typed in as root

    "hidd --search"
    and it found the mouse.
    Now under the connected bluetooth devices the mouse shows up.
    when I go to the settings window under devices it is not there. So I'm not sure if I really connected the right way.

    Under kde I can't use the mouse.

    How can I test if the mouse acutally is connected?

    Pairing is easy - but that is only the bluetooth equivalent to plugging in a USB cable, and in computers a cable alone rarely ever makes a device work. IIRC neither the kernel nor the X server are set up to use a mouse.
