But after you just delete HID from the line and restart the bluetooth service (either via command) or a restart and it should work.
But wouldn't you need some kind of UI to set up a keyboard? IIRC, I had the option to choose keyboard model, layout, plus the behaviour of certain function keys in the BT-keyboard-UI on my N800. If such settings aren't available for Maemo5, it's very hackish and hardly useful.
