this returned:

BUT PLZ NOTE "Apple touchpad" is the alias I supplied via testdevice,
which would probably go away if I rebooted.  the name in dmesg and
/proc is  [Apple Wireless Trackpad]

oops, forgot this info.  running fully up-to-date Manjaro stable
(based on Arch but a week or two behind).  current kernel is
3.16.7.7-1.  I have access to 3.18.7-1 and 3.19.0-1 but I would have
to install.  let me know if you want this and which one.

bluez is version 5.28-1 which I assume will be the version for bluetoothd.

sorry for not providing basic info in the first place.
