Problems with bluetooth mouse pairing

Hi,

I have problems with bluetooth mouse pairing - there is debug output from bluetoothd -d -n:

bluetoothd[25168]: Registered interface org.bluez.Control on path /org/bluez/25168/hci0/dev_00_21_AB_32_FD_45 bluetoothd[25168]: Found AV Target

for /org/bluez/25168/hci0/dev_00_07_61_86_FB_A5

Then my Ubuntu Gnome ask for confirmation to allow device pairing. If I allow it, the following follows:

bluetoothd[25168]: Removing temporary

If I disallow it, the following is printed:

bluetoothd[25168]: Agent replied with an error:

bluetoothd[25168]: Removing temporary

What I am missing? What can be wrong? Where I can found details which socket experienced HUP or ERR? I tried multiple approaches, so far nothing worked reliably. The mouse worked fine on Ubuntu 9.04, stop working on 9.10. I tried to install hidd, which was removed, or use blueman - nothing helps.

Thanks for any aid. Just pointing out what might be wrong will help as well.

What hardware is that? Do you use gnome-bluetooth or bluez-gnome, and which versions?

Cheers

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module]

The whole is part HP/Compaq nx7300 laptop.

gnome-bluetooth 2.28.1-0ubuntu2

bluez-gnome is not supported by Canonical, but I will try it out.

By hardware I meant the mouse. Why does it need pairing? Mice aren't supposed to need pairing.

Should be fine.

Don't. It just can happen that bluez-gnome will be installed if you're doing an upgrade.

Yes, I am also surprised by this.

It is Logitech Bluetooth Mouse, P/N 852665-0000, M/N M-R8893. I can try anything, including compiling new bluez stack - just give me pointers for what to look for.

I installed it anyway. It shows mouse when I click Add new hardware. When I leave automatic PIN selection, it ends with "Pairing failed". If I try various other PINs, it shows the same. That was already observed before, when I have bluez-gnome left from the upgrade.
