Bluetooth Issue on Fedora 11 Preview

[greg.lumpkin at gmail.com]

Yeah, I found that same voo doo on the Internet as well, but my success  
with it wasn't as good as yours. I could get the mouse to work by issuing  
some command in a terminal session, but when I turned the mouse off and  
back on, it didn't automatically connect back.

Either way, it never showed up in the Gnome app.
