Recently I’ve faced a lot of issues with some laptops interfering with the 2.4 GHz wireless mice, so I have adopted a new Bluetooth mouse to my accessories. Surprisingly, the Bluetooth did not work through the GUI interface… Fortunately, I got it to work using bluetoothctl!
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 |
bluetoothctl [bluetooth]# power off [bluetooth]# power on [bluetooth]# scan on [bluetooth]# connect 00:00:00:00:00:00 [MX Anywhere 2]# trust [MX Anywhere 2]# connect 00:00:00:00:00:00 [MX Anywhere 2]# pair [MX Anywhere 2]# unblock [MX Anywhere 2]# power off [bluetooth]# power on |
Replacing the 00:00:00:00:00:00 with your Bluetooth mouse’s UUID will make it work!
