[Bug 1094744] Re: MS Sculpt Touch Mouse needs to be re-paired periodically

 

Marcos, thanks for your help.

That output was to show that the mouse unpairs after a suspend/reboot.
If I follow the two steps I said before, I get the correct, expected
status (paired), and I can move my mouse. See relevant output now that
it is connected:

[ /org/bluez/663/hci0 ]
    Discovering = 0
    UUIDs = 0x1000 0x1001 0x112d 0x1112 0x111f 0x111e 0x110c 0x110e 0x110a 0x110b 
    Pairable = 1
    PairableTimeout = 0
    DiscoverableTimeout = 180
    Name = zurg-0
    Class = 0
    Address = C4:17:FE:EF:D8:A4
    Powered = 1
    Discoverable = 0
    Devices = dev_30_59_B7_73_B6_C6 
    [ /org/bluez/663/hci0/dev_30_59_B7_73_B6_C6 ]
        Paired = 1
        Vendor = 0x045e
        Services = dbus.Array([], signature=dbus.Signature('o'), variant_level=1)
        Trusted = 1
        Class = 0x002580
        Address = 30:59:B7:73:B6:C6
        Adapter = /org/bluez/663/hci0
        Version = 0x0129
        UUIDs = 0x1000 0x1124 0x1200 
        Blocked = 0
        Icon = input-mouse
        Name = Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse
        Connected = 1
        Alias = Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse
        Product = 0x07a2

The file currently reads this in the Microsoft mice section of the XML
(I've tried with name as well):

<!-- Microsoft mice
	     Again, same as above -->
	<device oui="30:59:B7:" type="mouse" pin="0000"/>
	<device oui="7C:1E:52:" type="mouse" name="Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse" pin="0000"/>
	<device oui="00:1D:D8:" type="mouse" name="Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000" pin="0000"/>

It still unpairs after a reboot or suspend. Changing to the adapter
address (oui="C4:17:FE:") does not make any difference. As you can see,
I can reconnect/repair, but I'd like it to be automatic.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. Thank you.

Bug description:
  [Impact] The patch makes Microsoft Wedge/Sculpt Touch mice stay connected.
  [Test Case] Get a Microsoft Wedge/Sculpt Touch mouse, pair it, restart session, watch it automatically re-pair.
  [Regression Potential] Little. The patched piece of XML is only relevant to hardware having the same ID.

  When you don't use the mouse for a long enough time, the mouse
  disconnects and won't reconnect. I have to go into bluetooth settings,
  remove it, and re-pair it.

  1)
  ~ % lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
  Release:	12.04

  2)
  ~ % apt-cache policy bluez
  bluez:
    Installed: 4.98-2ubuntu7
    Candidate: 4.98-2ubuntu7
    Version table:
   *** 4.98-2ubuntu7 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3)
  I expected the mouse to reconnect automatically, or at least after I try to reconnect manually through the bluetooth settings.

  4)
  I have to re-pair the mouse in order to use it again. Turning the mouse off and on doesn't work either.
