/opt/usr/bin/sixauth [XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:X] (PS3 BT Address)
Pair the keyboard and mouse (Do i need to delete the paring before i proceed?)
Connect sixaxis
Connect mouse and keyboard.
Bingo Bango. PS3 and Keyboard connected as before?
Would i need to pair the keyboard and mouse everytimme before i try and connect the PS3 controller?
If you can confirm this is correct i will go ahead and give it a go. Sorry about the sir business, i'm common as muck and refer to anyone above my status as such!
Thanks for all your help, i really appreciate it!
so has someone figured out how to have sixaxis and mouse/kb paired at the same time? I was asking for this ages ago!

It is OK wherever it is, just find the location you have saved the file to and execute dpkg from there.
Or download it on your PC, connect n900 as mass storage and copy the .deb in main directory of first disk (should be named N900). After that disconnect usb cable. Now downloaded .deb should reside in /home/user/MyDocs (remember CAPITAL LETTERS, it is linux
).
And just to remind you - you must be root when executing dpkg.

what keys don't work for you? for me, the following don't work (all of them are on the lower right of the keyboard)
1. del
2. /\| (this is one key)
3. right arrow
4. right ctrl
what's really crippling is #2 and #3. is there a utility that i can run with the stowaway keyboard connected to check if the N900 is indeed seeing input from the keyboard when i press those keys but is not mapping it correctly?

/home/user # cd /home/user/MyDocs

dpkg: need an action option
Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages[*];
Use `dselect' or `aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
Type dpkg --license for copyright license and lack of warranty (GNU GPL)[*].
Options marked[*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' !
Which option, if any, should i do now?
dpkg -i sixauth_0.0.2_armel.deb
note the hyphen before i, not after it

I think there is no need to wait, try it now.

something weird is happening to my setup. i now see 2 keyboards listed by extkbd. broadcom corp. keyboard and thinkoutside keyboard - i only have the latter connected to my phone. i did pair with a sixaxis this morning after i modified /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.
how do i remove the broadcom corp. keyboard entry?

it also defaults to using this keyboard all the time. i have removed "input" from main.conf and it now correctly defaults to my keyboard. but the broadcom entry is still there.
