I have a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer for Bluetooth too and have the exact same problem.
The only thing i tried yet is "sudo hciconfig hci0 pscan", but it didn't work for me. (for details see here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/249448/comments/51 ) I have this problem after restart, resume from sleep, resume from hibernate and when not touching the mouse for a while (my guess is about 5min too) -- Bluetooth mouse connection in Jaunty not working at startup and drops when resuming from a low power state https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/342447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
