BUT you need to replace /org/bluez/11984/hci0 by whatever response you got in step 2 (actually the number should be only thing that will be different) and replace 00_07_61_75_xx_xx by the mac address of your keyboard from step 4 (replacing all colons by underscores)

Johny, thank you for taking the time for writing such a great manual. But at step 5 I end up with a "Host is down (112)". :-(

The Keyboard (Stowaway XTBT01) does not show up when searching for it (hildon-im-xkbtool --list). Neither is it properly connected as a HID device. It shows up in the list of bluetooth devices as a keyboard and a trusted device, but when I click on it the "disconnect"-button is greyed out and there is no indicator blinking on the keyboard.

After about 3 hours of "what the" I tend to give up. Any advice? I would be very thankful.

Anyways, great all of you shared so much experience.
