Bluetooth mouse stopped working on Fedora 18
This one has me really confused.. I bought a new Bluetooth mouse today and set it up in Fedora 18 KDE. Worked perfectly, it even recognized what kind of mouse it was. I then went to eat dinner, and when I got back to my computer, it had lost the connection to the mouse. Trying to reconnect just timed out. If I press the buttons or move the mouse, the Bluetooth icon flashes with a small icon of some kind very briefly, which suggests to me that there's something happening. However, it simply wouldn't connect.
I tried rebooting, turning the mouse off, even removing the batteries, all to no avail. Last I tried removing the device to re-add it, and now it can't even find it when it scans. Even more strange, it also cannot find my phone when I tried that to see where the heck the problem is. Output from hciconfig -dev Code:
hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB Code:

Hi:
I'm not the genius here but maybe all you need is an update. Try running: Code:
yum update kde-bluetooth http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linu...edora.kde/9451 In this case for this member it is a bug; sorry for the bad news. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733847 Mouse problems and threads https://ask.fedoraproject.org/questi...-f18-from-f17/ http://unix.stackexchange.com/questi...n-fedora-works Try waking up the device (by editing) like this member did with his /proc/acpi/wakeup http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...up-4175440255/ Other than that the only other thing I know to try would be to click on your bluethooth icon and set up a new device. Hope this helps |
Found a few more possibilities and or troubleshooting techniques-
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Documentation/Bluetooth http://www.sohailriaz.com/how-to-fix...-in-fedora-15/ I *(think)* this just might be a bug. If I find anything useful over the next few days I'll post it for you. |
