Comment 64 for bug 1094744

Hi David,

In the version 3.18 of gnome-bluetooth this OUI is already added. May
be someone could backport the patch?

>> Hi Marcos,
>>
>> I did a clean install of 15.10 yesterday, so I also used that

>>
>> To be fully precise, this is what I did:
>>
>> 1. Clean install Ubuntu 15.10.
>> 2. Pair using the bluetooth icon in the top right at the desktop.
>> 3. Try suspend or reboot. It did not work (connection even refused to set up without removing and adding the device again).
>> 4. Added the OUI to the XML file as this, under the Microsoft Mice section:
>>
>> <device oui="30:59:B7:" pin="0000"/>
>>
>> 5. Reboot.
>>
>> After this, the connection is now persisting across reboots and
>> suspends. It would be nice for other users if they didn't need to edit

>> but I'm satisfied it works easily now.
