I have been testing with my patched copy of blues-utils for a week now, and have noticed no ill effects. The mouse and keyboard reconnect within a second or two of pressing a key or moving the device, regardless of how long they have been idle.
Unless someone has a solid reason why this is no good, I recommend integrating this patch and testing it with a wider array of hardware, in preparation for release as an update. It should serve at least until the bluez upstream developers figure out a long-term solution. -- Bluetooth Mouse looses connection after some time of inactivity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/175743 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
