please try 2.6.11-rc3-bk8, because I pushed some changes for this device
into mainline. Can you send me /proc/bus/usb/devices with the dongle
attached to your machine?

There should be a "hidd --server" running to catch the re-connect
attempts of the mouse and the keyboard. Otherwise it can't work.

The optimal is the output of "sdptest records" from the libs2 CVS
repository, because it tries to get every information available.
