Comment 21 for bug 428111

Hi,

just installed ubuntu 9.10 on my macbook 2.1. Tryed to get my mighty mouse to work. Did not connect right. My solution.

1. synaptic install bluez-compact to get the hidd search thing working
2. terminal sudo hidd --search you should get an error like this:

Searching ...
 Connecting to device 00:14:51:C4:EE:41
Can't create HID control channel: Connection refused
you need your device number! That's the number above.

3. terminal sudo gedit /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
4. put that in with your device number!

device 00:14:51:C4:EE:41 {
    name "Mighty Mouse"
    auth enable;
    encrypt enable;
}

5. terminal sudo hidd --search that's it mouse connected hope it works for you too!
