In blueman-manager, there are menu items and a separate icon button to turn on trust. These did not complain but didn't set the mouse as a trusted device either. I went into bluetoothctl, found the device id, and used the trust <dev_id> command. It reported setting "trust succeeded". Sure enough, when I went back into the gui blueman-manager, it was showing the trust icon for my mouse. Now rebooting with the mouse on, or starting the mouse after booting, it comes right up. Seems like blueman-manager needs a fix to get trust working. Jon -- Jon H.
