Maybe you were using fixed bluetooth.ko module before reflash. If you were using it then you should recopy bluetooth.ko module - if you are using stock kernel or wait for kernel-power v46 ( titan promised to include patch for bluetooth mouse in that version ) if using kernel-power.

And please will you explain here http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=65577 in English what was the problem with extkbd as I am trying to make it as useful and bugfree as possible, but without feedback...

latest update does not install because of conflict with
xserver-xorg-input-evdev-mouse
I uninstalled bt-hid-scripts to try a new install
and also purged config files xserver-xorg-input-evdev-mouse from terminal
Still it does not install with the same message.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
bt-hid-scripts: Depends: xserver-xorg-input-evdev-mouse but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
Any ideas? I did have it installed previously, but I bricked myself so lost everything. I didn't have a BT keyboard or mouse at the time to test it with, but now I have a Nokia SU-8W. It did have a conflict with extkbd when installing originally, so I removed that and it was fine. Extkbd hasn't been installed this time.

Update: I removed QtPy4 Full Install (PR1.2) - not sure why that was installed! Also managed to install extmouand Patched x.org Mouse Driver, trying to find the right combination of packages/dependenciesthat will allow BT-HID-Scripts to be installed.

Alas, I still get the last four lines quoted above as the log output error when attempting the install. Is there something wrong with the package?

Sorry folks,
I'm in a bit of a tricky situation here. freemangordon uploaded a better version of the mouse driver, with no kinetic scrolling problems, and he told me to use that one instead. So I gladly switched my dependency in bt-hid-scripts to his fixed mouse driver (instead of azerty1's buggy binary driver).

The problem is that freemangordon's mouse driver explicitly conflicts with bt-hid-scripts! He must have done this when azerty1's driver was part of my package.

So my choices are: (1) wait until freemangordon fixes his mouse driver package so that it doesn't conflict anymore, (2) switch back to depending on azerty1's broken driver, (3) change my package name to dodge the "conflicts" line in freemangordon's package, or (4) abandon the project and tell everyone to start using freemangordon's packages (external mouse support and external keyboard support).

Currently, I am trying (1), waiting hoping that freemangordon will fix the problem. I will wait a bit more, and then I will do both (2) and (3), that is, I will make bt-hid-scripts depend on the broken mouse driver again, and I will upload a new package, bt-hid-scripts2, that will depend on freemangordon's driver.

I think, eventually, everyone will just naturally switch over to freemangordon's packages and leave these scripts to wither away. That's fine; they were only here to fill a gap.

Ok, I've uploaded a new version that goes back to depending on the old driver package, in case you depend on these scripts.

So you've renamed the erroroneous package with a "2"? Just installed the originally named one successfully. Will try my Nokia SU-8W now...

Ahh, got it working. Didn't realise I had to wait until "Fn" was lit before I could enter the random code and pair. Works well, thanks Qole!

Only thing is of course the kinetic scrolling issue. No biggy!
