Comment 42 for bug 284982

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to use a Wiimote. It worked fine on Hardy, but stopped working after a clean install of Intrepid. Now it can still find the Wiimote, but pairing always fails. I'm using a generic "just made in china" dongle. lsusb gives me this:

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1131:1001 Integrated System Solution Corp. KY-BT100 Bluetooth Adapter

After updating BlueZ to 4.21, the gui wizard behaves slightly different. Instead of acting like the wiimote wasn't there when trying to pair with it (as it did before), it immediately tells me the pairing has failed, and the wiimote stops blinking.

I've tried installing Blueman along with the old BlueZ, but it still won't work.

This seems to be a major problem in Intrepid.
Still no clue about the causes/solutions?
