I am having this same problem with 3 different systems, using integrated Bluetooth or external dongles, using Intrepid with all updates as of today.
I tested with a Microsoft keyboard + mouse combo, as well as with a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000. Here are USB IDs of 2 of the bluetooth radios: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module] ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) The proposed workaround doesn't work. Even if it did I can't justify using it on laptops as it would expose the BT connection to third- parties, a security concern for many. -- Bluetooth Mouse looses connection after some time of inactivity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/175743 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
