If you read the date on the ticket, it was reported against the current version of Ubuntu at the time. Sure, "Many things change." That doesn't mean the bug was invalid, it just means you "won't fix."

Such PIN is '0000' which can be entered on a regular keyboard. Once connected, it also requires granting authorization to connect again. See the two attachments for such dialogs. When trying to setup this device manually (after moving it from another system, for example), by default Ubuntu will propose a random 6-number PIN, which can't be entered on the trackpad, which then means pairing fails. This trackpad should connect automatically, although I don't personally know enough about bluetooth to suggest how this should happen. I have documented a workaround to pair this device here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/AppleMagicTrackpad Once paired the device does not need pairing each time the system is used / restarted, it will remember it.
