everything is working fine now with the MX900. Thanks a lot Volker.

My T41 works like a charm with the MX900. Automatically reconnecs after standby/reboots, too. You must have "hidd -server" running in the background ("service hidd start" in FC4). Do you have something like the following in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf: # Logitech mouse MX900 device 00:07:61:07:32:CD {...

Do NOT do this. That command disables acces control, now everybody on the internet can read what you type and take remote screenshots!

What can I do then ? I need to lock my machine using fn + F3 but I can't if I don't type xhost +

And don't trust the led on linux, it's working only if you compile ipw2200 with a special option and I didn't manage to power on the led with ndiswrapper even if my wlan is up.

But, basically, I do Not want to broadcast my ssid !!!

Hi everyone, I'm a proud owner of a T42 (2373-CXG) but without a DVD Burner. I didn't want to take it because of the price, the speed and it burns only DVD-R (or+R, cant' remember... :? ).
