I am having some problems since installing this app (plus my KB still isn't working :|)

My web browser is acting crazy, as is my conversations display. I believe this is due to the presence of mouse cursor but I cannot get it to turn off. EDIT: scrolling through app icons in menu is also affected even though no cursor is visible here)

Any help without having to reflash? Just got everything the way I want it.

in names.

and in dmesg:

Code:
generic-bluetooth 0005:0DC6:3752.0001: input: BLUETOOTH HID v1.00 Keyboard [BTKB-69DC] on ...
It shows 'only' as a keyboard but works definitely as well as a mouse, because of the touchpad included.

In the bluettooth settings/device section it is shown as keyboard, too only.

The new version (0.5) has a daemon that waits for connections from your HID devices. It works well if you run it manually (bt-hid-connect-mgr.py or /etc/init.d/bt-hid-daemon start), but the instructions in the wiki to start it at boot don't seem to start it correctly... Still figuring it out...

bt-hid-connect-mgr.py gives me this:

Code:
root@n900 ~ # Watching dev_01_18_09_12_04_BD
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/bt-hid-connect-mgr.py", line 110, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/bt-hid-connect-mgr.py", line 95, in main
    adapter + "/" + DEVICE), 
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/dbus/bus.py", line 244, in get_object
    follow_name_owner_changes=follow_name_owner_changes)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/dbus/proxies.py", line 237, in __init__
    _dbus_bindings.validate_object_path(object_path)
ValueError: Invalid object path '/org/bluez/1061/hci0/': ends with '/' and is not just '/'
This happens with keyboard connected, and disconnected.

Do they also crash to you? It also happens to me and I thought it was because I switched my shell from busybox to bash...

Nah, no crashes at all touch wood.

My phone has never crashed anything except for DrNok SNES emulator.



Qole - any chance of this ever being expanded to include keyboards the use KBDD?

Or alternatively, can anyone advise me of a cheap 4 row foldable keyboard that is currently working including numbers without hours of messing around.

You may try kicking it with udev once a device connects.
This is how I launch sixad once SIXAXIS controller connects.

Thanks for the effort they are doing.

To me, it does not work the "-layout es" n900 returns "Error loading new keyboard description".

It seems an excellent suggestion

jormartr: it seems to be hitting a blank device ID. When you run "BT HID Connect" from the menu, does your keyboard appear? If so, choose it. Does the bt-hid-connect-mgr.py still crash?
