After that, it's reported as connected, but no longer moves the mouse cursor. I sometimes have to disable and enable bluetooth to bounce the wireless network connectivity to reconnect to the wireless network. Toggling wireless on / off also toggles bluetooth on / off. I've tried powering the mouse on and off, and re-connecting. It's reported as connected, but doesn't move the mouse cursor. This did work in 12.04; it doesn't in 12.10 beta. bluetooth 4.101-0ubuntu6 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1066844/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
