Chalk up another one for the response to the command that should theoretically complete the basic pairing setup:

Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "Connect" with signature "" on interface "org.bluez.Input" doesn't exist

Trying to use an apple wireless keyboard, the thin compact aluminum one. I am using the bluetooth mac addy that is reported in the "hcitool scan" command.

also, HID was not present in my conf file, but input was and I just commented out that whole plugin line.

any thoughts?
