Bug Description
When I run the Dapper final LiveCD, I can get my Logitech MX900 BT mouse working by typing
[sudo hidd --search] and then clicking the mouse's connect button, or
[sudo hidd --connect xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx] with the mouse's BT address.
However, after I installed Dapper to my HDD and rebooted, it was no longer possible to connect the mouse. I get
[searching...] while the blue connect button on the dock flashes, and then I get
[No devices in range or visible].
I tried booting from LiveCD again, no problems with connecting the mouse. I then did a re-install on my HDD, rebooted, and in the few seconds where the cursor is on the screen before the login prompt shows up, the mouse worked. Login prompt shows up, cursor dies, and it's still not possible to get it connected from the terminal or any other way I know of.
For some reason, the problem has disappeared. I've made the bug private so people don't waste their time with it...
