[Bluez-users] Problems using bluetooth keyboard with Nokia N800...

I'm attempting to use a Freedom Universal bluetooth keyboard with my
Nokia N800.   I've managed to pair successfully but cannot get the
keyboard to connect.

I've tried via the N800's Bluetooth control panel and all I get is
connection failed.  I've attached a file kbd.txt which is the output of
'hcidump -X -V' when using the control panel to try to connect to the
keyboard.

I've also tried using hidd.  With hidd I get:

Nokia-N800-26:/etc/bluetooth# hidd --connect 00:08:0d:6f:4c:ab
Can't create HID control channel: Connection reset by peer

I've also attached a file kbd1.txt which is the output of 'hcidump -X
-V' when using the control panel to try to connect using hidd.

AFAIK, I have the latest OS installed with all the latest available
updates.  I've gathered the following information from the tablet:

Any chance someone could look at the dumps and suggest a way to get the
two devices to connect.  I haven't attempted to modify
/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf by hand yet; I figured it shouldn't need to be
or the control panel would do it.

BTW, I have verified the keyboard actually works as a HID device.  I was
able to successfully pair and connect with a laptop running Windows XP
and the Microsoft stack.

Thanks,

Scott
