Re: [Bluez-users] help with Logitech Travel Mouse

[Martin Stolle <mstoll@sus.mcgill.ca>]

I've had similar experience with a bluetooth keyboard (which I am
switching between computers, hence the need to re-establish connection).
Before, a sudo hidd --search would re-establish the connectino.  Now, I
have to try that a couple of times before it spits out the MAC address.
Armed with the MAC address, I can now do sudo hidd --connect <MAC address>

It's definitely a regression from before (but might be more intended
behavior?  The weird part is that often, my keybaord will think the
connection is re-established after the hidd --search, but the computer
doesn't think so.  So I have to hit the reset/connect button on the
keyboard between all the --search and one last time before the
--connect.
