Default Bluetooth mouse/keyboard in Linux
I use a Microsoft Bluetooth mouse/keyboard set, but they are not working in Fedora Core 5. The bluetooth service starts fine, but the divices dont work and I dont know how to enable them!

Mine never worked. It seems that the M$ mouse/keyboard use the M$ BT stack which will not work in Linux.

It is possible to get it working, but it may take some work.

i bought that blue mouse/keyboard set also, it works and disconnects randomly, i exchanged it for the wireless laser desktop which is very persistent. it's an overall better set.
