Thanks for the answer.
Indeed keyboard does not work either, and im not able to use the flasher lol (ubuntu and w7 both x64). Guess i'll have to lend an x86 machine tomorrow.

This could be because bt hid driver has buggy sniff mode support, later i will post patches i have made to my n900 to overcome the issue, so you can try if it solves it

while playing recently with my bt mouse, i found that if you open a site containing flash then cursor appears in browser and remains there until reboot.

P.S.

I am not using your solution to use bt mouse,so above may not be your case. I use much simpler approach to show the cursor, so will will post further details/instructions when I am back to my home desktop

Does your bluetooth icon turns blue once you move/click your mouse? If it doesn't it could be a pairing problem, try installing bluez-compat and then go to terminal as root and try manually connecting to your mouse using its address "hidd --connect 00:00:00:00:00:00"

Could anyone report success? Just want to make sure it's working for someone else besides me.

I gave it a try and it does work in conversations.

I don't know, I would expect that any mouse works well, I have tried Microsoft and Logitech mice with success.

Somehow I got the pointer to appear on the browser, but lost it after showing and hiding their large cursor, couldn't make it reappear even after going to youtube and playing a video... BTW, are you able to click/right-click scroll in the browser with your bt mouse? My guess is that it only reacts to BTN_TOUCH and ignores all the others... I'll need to try a few other things.
