[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#635910: bluez: bluetooth mouse fails to reconnect

Package: bluez
Version: 4.94-2
Severity: normal

After configuring a bluetooth mouse for the first time, all is fine and the
mouse is working.

But after turning the mouse off and on again, or after reboot, or after long
idle time (mouse sleeping?), the bluetooth mouse cannot reconnect to the system
again. It needs to be removed and configured again, so the coniguration is
working for one session only.

This is quite nasty, as the configuration (using the GUI, e.g. bluetooth-
wizard) is possible only with a working mouse ... so another (USB-)mouse is
required, which makes the bluetooth mouse quite useless.

The system here is an old powerpc minimac; tried this with a logitech bluetooth
mouse and an IBM/lenovo bluetooth mouse.
