CentOS - May 2007 - Centos 5 and blutooth mouse

I have an hp dv9000 laptop with centos 5.

everything is working except my bluetooth mouse...

I go up to the icon (upper right) for bluetooth, right click on
it, click the discoverable icon, then click the discoverable button
on my mouse - ----- and nothing.

Nothing pops up with a pin number for the mouse,
nothing happens at all...

Does this not work? What might I be missing.
