Description Jonathan Watt 2011-11-11 12:30:28 UTC
I've installed the newly released Fedora 16 on a ThinkPad T410 and tried to bluetooth pair it with an Apple wireless keyboard and magic trackpad. The Apple keyboard pairs without any problem, but the magic trackpad will not pair.

In the "Bluetooth New Devices Setup" window it recognizes the trackpad as being of type "Tablet". When I select it and click "Continue" it immediately asks me to enter a six digit pin, but almost immediately that message disappears and is replaced by the message "Setting up 'magic trackpad' failed". I also tried changing the "Pin options" to the fixed PIN "0000" (the correct pin for the magic trackpad, and the pin that I used to successfully pair it with other devices), but it still then goes on to briefly flash the message instructing me to enter a six digit PIN, before giving me the failure message it gave previously before I even have time to react.

The only messages I get in /var/log/messages are:

Are you still seeing this with the 3.2.7 or newer kernel?

If so, please attach the output of dmesg
