Hello
I got my Bluetooth Mighty Mouse working with Intrepid out of the box - except for scrolling with the scrollball. So I did this:

And it worked out. But scrolling downward was a bit funky, thought maybe there was some physical junk in there, so I kinda messed with my mouse, turning it off. When I turned it back on and tried to pair it again, it fails. I restarted everything, restarted Bluetooth and still "fails." It pops up there, "jack's mouse" but won't pair for some reason.

Also, if/when I get this working, I wanted to remap the buttons - like the squeeze buttons that currently go BACK and FORWARD, but I want them to do something else. How to do that?

There is a known bug in Bluetooth that causes the pairing problem in Intrepid. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6086632&postcount=5 for a workaround.
