Made no discernable difference for me. :( This is in my /etc/default/bluetooth: HIDD_OPTIONS="--connect 00:07:61:35:FE:A9 --connect 00:19:7F:21:EE:73 --master --server" The mouse, which works, is 00:07:61:35:FE:A9. The other one is the headset, which I still have to explicitly pair with in order to connect. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com The Astoria Seminar ==> http://www.astoriaseminar.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
