+ 05ac:8206 bt keyboard and magic mouse lost when using 3.0.0.12.14

** Description changed:

  Upgrading to oneiric, my bt keyboard (apple) and magic mouse are not
  recognised at the lightdm login prompt.
  
  The keyboard is recognised during the boot and I finally used 2.6.38-11
  which works fine !
  
  This is on a dual-boot setup where OSX is kept for firmware updates but
  running ubuntu otherwise.
  
  Both the keyboard and mouse are used in HID mode (paired with OSX).
  
- I'll followup with an apport-collect.

+ WORKAROUND: For the record, the way to migrate the link keys from osx to 
ubuntu goes
+ like (providing you plug some keyboard/mouse to do it :-}):
+ 
+ 1) Pair the bt devices in OSX
+ 
+ 2) Get their link keys in
+   /media/osx/private/var/root/Library/Preferences/blued.plist.
+ 
+ The osx partition needs to be mounted under Ubuntu for this to work.
+ 
+ 3) Decipher with:
+ 
+   $ plutil /media/osx/private/var/root/Library/Preferences/blued.plist
+ 
+ 'plutil' is provided by the libplist-utils package
+ 
+ 4) For each key:
+ 
+    $ echo <data> | base64 -d | hexdump -C
+ 
+ The bytes are stored (hence displayed) in the reversed order of the one
+ expected in linkkeys (just don't ask me why, I bang my head in despair when
+ I found this dirty trick).
+ 
+ i.e. ff d4 7b db 3d be 35 7c 9f 9a b4 f1 7f 51 3e 1f
+ becomes 1F3E517FF1B49A9F7C35BE3DDB7BD4Ff
+ 
+ 5) Put the link keys obtained above in the expected files:
+ 
+  /var/lib/bluetooth/<MAC address>/linkkeys
+ 
+ With that in place, while I still need to have OSX/rEFIt/grub see my
+ keyboard (which still requires a double boot dance), both the mouse and the
+ keyboard are available at the lightdm stage \o/
