Ubuntu Bluetooth Issues

From LinuxServerTech

Bluetooth does not work out of the box with Gutsy Gibbon when connecting to a Kensington Mouse, but the community has come up with solutions. I am summarizing here:

sudo apt-get install gnome-vfs-obexftp
Put your mouse in discover mode
Right-click on the bluetooth applet and select "Preferences", go to the "Services" tab, left-click on "Input service", click the "Add" button, select your input device & connect.
