linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – I am an intermediate linux user having started out with ibm unix more than 13 yrs ago and started out using ubuntu on distro 7.10. My problem currently is installing my bluetooth kb and mouse on 9.04. The mouse install ok but when it idles jaunty loses it and I have to reinstall it. The keyboard however will not install at all. I never had a problem on previous versions of ubuntu and am disappointed that I am having trouble making them work correctly. I very much need these to work because my setup requires them because my computer is setup across the room from my bed because I'm disabled. Thank you for any assistance given and I look fwd to replies. (Hardware)

I purchased a logitech for android bluetooth keyboard with stand, and a microsoft wedge touch mouse (which is epic) and i am having a problem

basically when i have the keyboard attached by itself it work fine, but when i connect the mouse to the bluetooth in the device to keyboard 'jams' on a certain key, like AAAAAAAAAAAAA...but over and over, i was wondering if anyone has either had the same

I'm trying to install 12.10 on my system, but my mouse and keyboard are not working during installation. I use the Logitech MX5500 Bluetooth mouse+keyboard combo with a Bluetooth dongle.

My keyboard and mouse work in my UEFI bios, and during the Windows 7/8 installation.

Hi.

I have a Dell Studio 1715 laptop, which comes with bluetooth, webcam, fingerprint reader, everything. I enjoyed ubuntu a lot in this laptop.... until I met this problem.

I bought a bluetooth laser mouse, which didn't work for me before. Can't remember the brand... now it happens all over again with a brand new mouse, so it can't be the mouse itself.

Hi

I have a galaxy note 2 and am thrilled with it!. I have been using a chunky Bluetooth keyboard and mouse,usually used on my PC.

I have a microsoft 5000 bluetooth mouse. After some time, i got it to pair with my laptop (Ubuntu 12.04 64). BUT the pointer doesn't move and the buttons work only marginally. The mouse is a laser mouse so it should work well on any surface- this one isn't working at all..

Is there something I'm missing? Has anyone else had this problem? did I really get the one bad mouse of the bunch??

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 on a laptop with a Synaptics touchpad. While testing an install of Bluetooth drivers I booted my computer into recovery mode so I could find out if Bluetooth worked before networking was installed. The system reconfigured the graphics to low VGA which disabled the mouse. I rebooted (normal startup) uninstalled the bluetooth drivers, but my mouse still won't work.

Hi guys,

Hi, I just installed ubuntu 11.10 alongside with windows 7, I have the both operativesystems on two different partitions. But when I start up ubuntu my ordinary mouse and keyboard doesnt work, it's a razer naga mouse and a Microsoft sidewinder keyboard. If I unplug those and plugin an old mouse and keyboard I can log in to then unplug those and use my primary instead.

Hello,

I am quite experienced in installing openSUSE. (I used it for many years.) But the problem showed below tricks me out.

I just tried to install openSUSE 11.2. In initmode 3 the keyboard works well. Everything worked well up to the moment I started runlevel 5. In XWindows Modus, the keyboard and the mouse are disabled.
