Hi,
I have the same mouse. After a bit of probing, it looks like this is a
PolicyKit thing/bug.
Bluetoothd asks PolicyKit for permission, but PolicyKit doesn't know
about bluetooth, so pairing always fails.
My quick and *very* dirty solution was as follows:
edit /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf
and add the following lines between the <config> and </config> tags:
<match user="shartsuiker">
<return result="yes"/>
</match>
Of course you would need to replace my username with your own username :)
For me this allows the pairing to succeed.
Regards,
Stefan Hartsuiker
