Bluetooth Mouse

I just installed Mandriva 2008 on my Sony Vaio laptop and I'm having difficulty getting my bluetooth mouse to work. My laptop has builtin bluetooth and I've been using the bluetooth mouse with Windows for sometime now. I really like not having to carry the dongle around.

 

When I try to add an input device (Configuration > Input Devices... > Add New Devices ) Mandriva recognizes the mouse but doesn't seem to want to pair with it. After Mandriva recognizes the mouse I click on the "Setup" button I get the following errormessage:

 

"Failed to create the input device for Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000"

 

Suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I just purchased a HP Laptop, I loaded mandriva 2007 on it and I had all sort of problem. I just upgraded to Mandriva 2008, it fixed most of my problem (i.e sound, wireless, etc ) but I can not get my Logitech bluetooth mouse to work with it. It sees the mouse but it will not allow me to set it up. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
