But this pairing doesn't work very well. Mouse is seen but pairing fail. More information: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104011#c5 This is due to udev rule that use "hcitool" to power on device. Hopefully, bluez 5.35 has a new parameter "AutoEnable" who can be used instead of udev rules. here is a commit with this parameter: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~guilhem-fr/bluez/autoenable/revision/138 And a ppa to test it: https://code.launchpad.net/~guilhem-fr/+archive/ubuntu/bluez-autoenable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1510570/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
