[Bug 1094744] Re: MS Sculpt Touch Mouse needs to be re-paired periodically

[Marcos Barbosa]

Hello everyone!

today Anton Anikin and me, Marcos Barbosa, work together in the bug
#1158462 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1158462).
Is for Microsoft Wedge Touch mouse, but i think Sculpt Touch is very
similar (Bluetooth, Touch technology, BlueTrack, etc.).

The workaround for now to avoid install Blueman is add this simple line:
<device oui="00:00:00:" type="mouse" name="Microsoft Sculpt Touch Mouse" pin="0000"/>
Inside the file /usr/share/gnome-bluetooth/pin-code-database.xml. Please, substitute "00:00:00:" (do not forget the final colon) for the first half of the correct OUI. You can detect using a tool like btscanner.

There's some problems with suspend mode (oficially "Backpack mode") but
kernel 3.10 corrects this.

Please someone add the line and execute some tests. Report the results.
Next step is test using kernel 3.10.

Best regards.
