tried this. doesn't work.

pairs successfully with my iGo / ThinkOutside keyboard.

shows up in Jolla as supporting HID and DID

but Jolla doesn't respond to input at all.

/etc/bluetooth/main.conf shows input profile is not disabled.

any ideas, anyone?

BT HID module is not available in default firmware. You need to compile bluez yourself or wait for software update.

Build the bluez 5.14 packages, in case you want to test. Allthough I dont quite get that @rainisto states it is not build for Sailfish. doing a zypper search lists it, and also hcitool etc is installed (version 4.101).
Thererfore, installing what i compiled is not 'easy'.
Dont ask for instructions on how to replace already installed packages. If you know how, great, if not .... You probably shouldn't ;)

:) like I said. Dont try to replace already provided system tools unless you are very aware of what you are doing.
I have no issues on my device with v5.14. But it also doesnt seem to provide anything compared to v4.101.
I suppose what is needed is (even worse) a kernel compiled with necessary modules.

can someone tell me how to set up the dev environment to compile packages? i want to try something a little less dangerous like nslookup :P

i have the sailfish SDK set up in oracle virtualbox.

.configure
make

??

Oh, and nslookup is part of dnsutils. If you want to only compile nslookup, you have a little extra investigation task to do ;)
