hello everybody!
I have a OMIZ 6221 bluetooth keyboard (MSI BK-100 no HID)
i try to connect n900 with bluetooth, and I type following text in X-terminal:

rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 00:0F:F6:34:06D(my keyboard address)

Appear after:

Connected /dev/rfcomm0 to 00:0F:F6:34:06D on channel 1
Press CTRL-C for hangup

I think the keyboard has been connected, but I still can not use it.

I saw this post:

Hi,

I had the very same problem and found out it seems that besides in this thread, noone managed to make it working. However, all links are dead and archive.org did not store them. Good news for you: it works now and it is quite easy! Steps:

• Pair the device with pin 0000
• Download the fremantle kbdd binary from here and put the kbdd binary to /usr/bin
• Load the uinput module (provided with the fremantle standard kernel) and automatically re-load it at boot-time:
  
  Code:

  modprobe uinput
  echo uinput >> /etc/modules

To connect to the device, every time two programs have to be started:

• Connect the device with rfcomm (you find the bluetooth address with hcitool scan):
  
  Code:

  rfcomm connect 1 00:0A:3A:2F:XX:XX 1

• Start the userspace keyboard driver with
  
  Code:

  kbdd -t freedom -p /dev/rfcomm1

These steps can be combined in a script or better automatically started in udev or from the bluetooth daemon. But this will come later.

It is incredible that everything seems to work instantly. The keyboard layout can now be configured with the extkb gui. It is displayed as SerKBD.

Happy typing,
The hypnotoad
