Hi All,
I just purchased the Freedom Universal Keyboard for my N800. As expected it does not work in HID mode, so I installed 'kbdd' as described above and elsewhere, and switched to SPP mode. The N800 finds the keyboard, pairs, the 'connected' box is shown on the display and the bluetooth symbol turns a blueish color. The blinking green LED on the keyboard turns off.
That is the good part. The bad part is that my keystrokes are not recognized, only a autorepeating string of gibberish appears. I increased the KEYREPEAT value in btkbdd.conf to 6000 to be sure, but the gibberish seems in no way related to the keys pressed (long sequences of 'lllllll' or '///////////' seem most common).
Setting 'DEBUG' to 'yes' does not show anything in the log.
I am using a fresh set of batteries.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Any ideas how to get the keyboard working?
I tried the keyboard on a WinXP laptop (in HID mode) and it works fine there, so at least it is not completely broken.
Thanks in advance!
