Go to your console and type in:

daniel@d620:~$ hcitool scan

Make sure your mouse is in pairing mode. For me, I had to push and hold the Reset button on my mouse for just over a second and a green light started blinking. Thats when I knew it was in paring mode.

So the command will search for any Bluetooth devices in paring mode.

Scanning …
00:XX:61:XX:F9:XX Bluetooth Travel Mouse

So here was hav, the device found with its MAC Address.

Now we need to have the computer pair with the device.

to do that type the following command (of course substituting for your MAC Address)

daniel@d620:~$ sudo hidd –connect 00:XX:61:XX:F9:XX

Now your Bluetooth mouse should work.

Going through that process every time you turn your computer on would be a major pain in the ass, so lets make it so it does it automatically. To do that type in this command:

sudo gedit /etc/default/bluetooth

Look for and replace

HIDD_ENABLED=0
# HIDD_OPTIONS=”-i AA:BB:CC:DD:EE –server”

with:

HIDD_ENABLED=1
HIDD_OPTIONS=”-i 00:XX:61:XX:F9:XX –server”

Save and close and now your mouse should connect automatically each time you use your computer.
