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

 

Hi David,

In the version 3.18 of gnome-bluetooth this OUI is already added. May
be someone could backport the patch?

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.
