Any update on BT kayboard? I got mine a few days ago and although it works with my Linux laptop (connecting using Gnome panel applet), I'm not able to use it with FR.
I've found both articles on Wiki: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Freedom_Slim_Keyboard http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Manually_using_Bluetooth#HID_.28Human_Input_Device.29 but the commands doesn't seem to be working. I'm getting the best results with hdid --connect ADDRESS after which command I have this in dmesg: [10713.020000] Bluetooth: HIDP (Human Interface Emulation) ver 1.2 [10802.370000] input: Broadcom Corp. Keyboard as /devices/platform/s3c2410-ohci/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:42/input6 [10802.380000] generic-bluetooth 0005:0A5C:8502.0001: input: BLUETOOTH HID v1.1b Keyboard [Broadcom Corp. Keyboard] on 00:06:6E:17:29:5E And if I cat /dev/input/event6 I can see some garbage on the screen while pressing buttons on my keyboard. But If I open terminal or new message dialog, I can't see any letters while typing on the keyboard.
