But as for the script that your other post mentions:

I read the topic X keyboard input focus on N900 and from what I could understand this fix needs to be applied every time you want to use the hw keyboard on bluemaemo? please correct me if I'm wrong, because I would love to be wrong in this case :)

Other than that, I only mentioned the volume toggle because in researching this app I thought that I had read somewhere that it could be used as the left and right click. But of course I could be mistaken.

Thanks again for all your help.

That's correct you will need to do it every time you start bluemaemo but what you could try to do is edit
/usr/share/applications/hildon/bluemaemo.desktop
to point to a script instead, which will launch bluemaemo and apply the fix automatically. That way you don't need to do anything just click the bluemaemo app and everything is done.

The good thing is that even if you multitask on the n900 when using bluemaemo you do not have to keep applying the keyboard focus fix.

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Has anyone got this working with PR1.3? I keep getting dependancy issues and conflicting packages with efl-core. Tried downloading and installing efl-core directly from project page but get incompoatable package.
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...emaemo/0.3-10/
Seems it may be a python version confliction??

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Anyone got this working with PR1.3 without conflicts?

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Doesn't work for me in PR1.3
Was difficult to get it connected, until I paired again from scratch.
HW-keyboard is not working (I haven't tried to the fix script) and mouse movement is very slow and unusable.

I consider this application broken currently with PR1.3

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Using PR1.3, can't use hw keyboard, otherwise seems to work ok for me.

Possible to have say, two different setups for the media controls (i tend to use one app for music and another for videos and would prefer if i didn't have to change keyboard layouts in those applications)

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

I'm using PR1.3 too,installed without a problem.

Very strange I must have installed something thats conflicting with it as I cannot even install due to efl-core conflict.

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

strange indeed.
what apps have you installed?
You could remove the conflicting packages and install bluemaemo but then I'm not sure what apps you have that depend on them. The other app can break/be removed if you do remove the package.

Just a side note I have it working perfect with Windows7 following the guide on page 49 of this thread. If anyone needs help give us a shout.

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

I have finally managed to get the the N900 to pair with my win7-64bit install. Very hard to do. I've been messing with it for hours. However, now that i get it to connect, i can't use it. If i go into any of the profiles and try to issue a command it immediately disconnects me from the computer. So right now it's effectively useless.

Does anyone know why, or how to fix, the instant disconnect problem? I would really like to be able to use the keyboard to control my media center.
