[Bug 307349] [NEW] Bluetooth mouse stops working following normal shutdown

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I am using a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 on a Lenovo W500
laptop under Ubuntu 8.10.

The mouse worked fine after initial installation. However if the laptop
is powered off and then restarted, the mouse no longer works (moving the
mouse results in no cursor motion). The mouse is still reported under
the System | Preferences | Bluetooth | Known devices window as a
'Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000' although it has a white letter
'i' in a blue circle next to the name. What this means I have no idea.

The only way I have found to recover mouse operation (until the next
shutdown of course) is to delete the device from the list (using the
Trash can icon) and then perform a device setup ('Setup new device...')
action again. Obviously this is painful to do after every restart of the
computer.

Please advise how I may assist in resolving this issue.
