@ Zhares sorry if I misunderstud you; but I also never had any change to get my mouse to work. not even with sudo hidd --connect aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff. Maybe it's due to the cause that it uses a broadcom BT chipset (dongle) and as far as I know most Macs use broadcom, too. It's however not a kernel problem, as the mouse and the keyboard works in the (simpler) emulation mode that the kernel provides. It seems to be a problem in the bluez package, as the mouse ceases to work as soon as it is switched on. I have sent a couple of posts to the bluez newsgroup, but nobody answered back. Maybe it affects only a relatively small set of hardware (like broadcom) and they think we are nuts by claiming it doesn;t work, as it works for so many others. The worst are these people who recommend getting the mouse work in the original kernel (emulation) mode.They make me mad as they just don't get the problem. Disabling bluez is not a fix, it makes the mouse wheel not working and it prohibits the use of any other BT services (like download pictures from a cell phone).
