Normally, I’d focus in on how to reset the keyboard and mouse so they forget their current pairing, and are available again for discovery by the adapter on Linux. We know the hardware is working (with the successful datapoint on Windows) - so let’s try to figure out what’s happening differently on the Linux side.įirst off, as you know every distro and kernel is different – especially with a custom compile – so that’s an aspect we may not be able to help with. The keyboard and mouse are confirmed working with Windows 7 and also Windows XP on a laptop with a built-in adapter. I’m using Arch Linux x86 with a custom kernel 3.10 (so I might have missed some module) and the Maté DE. I was able to use them with this adapter once, until I rebooted. The mouse and keyboard are less than 1 meter away from the adapter, and have new batteries. This happens whether the adapter is plugged into the front or back of the computer. If I turn the devices off and on again, they can no longer be detected. In blueman-manager, the three bars beside the mouse and keyboard keep disappearing and reappearing. When I try to add one of them, it tells me something like “added device successfully, but failed to attach it”. When I use blueman-assistant, it sees the mouse and keyboard. ![]() Blueman-applet is showing an icon in the tray. It shows up in lsusb, bluetoothd is running, and the bluetooth, hidp, and btusb modules are loaded. I don’t have problems using it on Windows 7 with the included software, but on Linux it acts very flaky. ![]() I’m attempting to use a keyboard and mouse with the bluetooth adapter I just purchased from Amazon ( … ).
