Need help with debugging a bluetooth mouse (trackball)

Need help with debugging a bluetooth mouse (trackball)

[Dan A. Dickey]

I have a Kensington SlimBlade Trackball mouse that I'm trying to get working again.
It has worked in the past.

Currently, I'm running 2.6.30 and bluez-4.41.

My adaptor shows up just fine:
# hciconfig -a
hci0:   Type: USB
        BD Address: 00:19:15:60:19:6A ACL MTU: 1017:8 SCO MTU: 64:8

        Manufacturer: Broadcom Corporation (15)


And when I move the mouse (roll the ball) - I get the following from a 'bluetoothd -n -d':
bluetoothd[4179]: adapter_get_device(00:02:76:03:A8:51)
bluetoothd[4179]: adapter_create_device(00:02:76:03:A8:51)
bluetoothd[4179]: Creating device /org/bluez/4179/hci0/dev_00_02_76_03_A8_51
bluetoothd[4179]: btd_device_ref(0x7f8d4e403d20): ref=1
bluetoothd[4179]: Incoming connection on PSM 17

'hcitool con' shows:
# hcitool con
Connections:
        > ACL 00:02:76:03:A8:51 handle 11 state 1 lm MASTER

'list-bluetooth-devices' shows:
# list-bluetooth-devices
[ /org/bluez/4179/hci0 ]
    Name = fizban-0
    Powered = 1
    Devices = dev_00_02_76_03_A8_51
    DiscoverableTimeout = 0
    PairableTimeout = 0
    Discoverable = 0
    Address = 00:19:15:60:19:6A
    Discovering = 0
    Pairable = 1
    Class = 4849924
    [ /org/bluez/4179/hci0/dev_00_02_76_03_A8_51 ]
        Name = Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse
        Paired = 0
        Adapter = /org/bluez/4179/hci0
        Alias = Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse
        Connected = 1
        UUIDs =
        Address = 00:02:76:03:A8:51
        Class = 0x002580
        Trusted = 0
        Icon = input-mouse

One of the things that looks suspicious above is that it shows 'Paired = 0'.
When I run simple-agent, I just get:# simple-agent              
Agent registered                     
Authorize (/org/bluez/2468/hci0/dev_00_02_76_03_A8_51, 00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb)


So... any help to figure out this problem would be much appreciated.
Let me know what I can try... I'm a developer so I can handle rebuilding whatever.

One thing I'm curious about is where can I see the ID_VENDOR and ID_MODEL
that get passed between udev and the hid2hci rules?  Since this is a kensingon
mouse, I presume it doesn't match one of the entries in there...
