my bluetooth mouse doesnt work

Can you tell us more information? - Type of mouse, version of Ubuntu, drivers you are using to run it...

thanks for response

my bluetooth mouse is a navigator 900 pro genius mouth
it has a driver cd but it is plug n play in windows so i never had to install the drivers
however drivers are only for windows.

version of ubuntu is 7.10 gutsy
when i try to connect the bluetooth mouth with the existing tool in ubuntu it says :

"obex://[00:12:a1:60:64:a4]" is not a valid location.
Please check the spelling and try again.

these little things make linux distros not as popular as windows
because most of the people are not software engineers
i think if linux become more user friendly it is a good replacement for windows.

I remember that I used such a mouse on my Ubuntu installation. I got it work by using the Blueman Bluetooth Manager, it can be obtained from here:-

Once installed, open the application, press the Inquiry button, after the sweep is done, go to Edit>Services and turn on Input, then press the configuration button and add the mouse to the list of devices, the rest of the steps are much easier from there.

thank you very much
