ACK all the way.I will give a Logitech bluetooth keyboard+mouse to the developer who can solve this problem, or I will donate the value of that keyb+mouse to a charity of his/her choice. That is an incentive of about 100 if I'm not mistaken. If there are others who are also willing to donate, I'll set up a pledge site to get this bug fixed. -- Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard Broken in Dapper/Edgy/Feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32415 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
