the hidd is in bluez-utils-2.7 and needs a 2.6.7-mh1 kernel with
activated HIDP kernel module.

Pressing the connect button is only needed for the initial connection
and after that the mouse will reconnect to you. For that you must run
"hidd --server".

I propose that you install 2.6.7-mh1 with hidp.ko and use hidd.
