Bluetooth mouse [solved]

[chocobanana]

Hi there

 

I have a laptop with an integrated bluetooth antenna and I bought an wireless bluetooth mouse for it. I have bluez and kbluetooth installed, but I haven't figured out yet how to make the mouse work. I'm using Mandrake 10.2

 

Can somebody help?

Hi

 

Here's an update to the problem:

 

The mouse is detected, I can see it in bluetooth://

 

The thing is, how do I put it to work?

I just found the soulution:

You just have to follow this simple instructions and change hcid.conf according to the example presented - just make changes related to the pin helper to reflect the code bellow:

# PIN helper
# pin_helper /bin/bluepin;
       pin_helper /usr/lib/kdebluetooth/kbluepin;

 

Then add the following in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (not mencioned in the link above):

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Name of the device shown in hcitool -scan, without spaces"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    Option "Buttons" "number of buttons for your mouse"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
        InputDevice "Name of the device shown in hcitool -scan, without spaces" "SendCoreEvents"
EndSection
