It would be cool if the "controller" mode could have "sub-modes" such as "PS3", "computer controller", "wii", etc.
The profile right with the "?" icon will be a PS3 profile or console profile, I'm expecting the help of the PS3 owners for suggestions of the needed buttons/keys

My last question is whether or not this program would work on a standard linux machine, I would like to use my linux laptop as a keyboard/mouse for my PS3, but the only way to do that is via VNP on the N810. If anyone knows of another program that works in linux, that would be great also.

Anyone with any suggestions, please let me know.
1- Follow the 5 steps described by phutterman in the thread cited.
2- Start BlueMaemo in the "Open connection" mode, in the Mac Side go to the Bluetooth preferences and choose to connect to n8x0.
3 - When you reach the connection, go to the mouse profile, and see if it works, if not continue there until get a message asking for connect again, hit yes.
4 - If it doesn't work, tell me what happens in the steps 2 and 3.
Best regards.

Thanks, now that I finally got it working in Vista with my external bluetooth adapter (had to hack around using widcomm) I can use it for presentations!
Couldn't do that with Ubuntu since I had to turn off Compiz just to get an external monitor to work.

Ready, I put a comment on maemo.org
Here is a copy:
This is an excellent application. I use it as a Remote Control with PowerDVD when watching movies on the PC.
The version 0.2-1 is much better, and I'm glad to see this project improving. I just have a suggestion for a next version. I know is can be kind of complicated but it would be helpful to have multiple profiles for the Media option, so I can configure one profile with the keys to control Winamp, and other to control PowerDVD, so I can change easily from one profile to the other without having to remap all the keys one by one.
Anyway, thanks for the app. Good Job
PS:Also, I guess all of you have seen the Media Keyboards that have special buttons on top of the F# keys, that open certain applications like Media Player, Mail, Browser, Calculator, My Pc or run functions like Vol+, Vol-, Shut Down or Hibernate. Is possible to emulate those buttons?

), because they aren't defined in the specs that I have.

Best regards.
1. Turn bluetooth on on both devices. Set the N800 visible.
2. In the Mac Bluetooth menu, click "Set Up Bluetooth Device."
3. On the N800, start BlueMaemo and click open connection.
4. On the Mac, select "Any Device." Choose the N810 and enter a passkey. Then enter passkey on N800.
5. Click "Continue" on the Mac dialog box. Uncheck headset and leave remote device checked.
The BT set up box confirms device set up. I close the box. On the Mac side, it indicates that they are connected, however, BlueMaemo indicates it is waiting for a connection.
Under the N800 profile I never see anything that refers to mouse
So even though no connection appears to have been establiched, I close BlueMaemo, restart BlueMaemo, click open connection & try to connect through the Mac's BT prefs: scroll down to N800 and select connect (the only other choice is send file). Still...waiting for connection. There are no other menu items for the N800.
I also tried setting up as a mouse and then a keyboard, but the N800 is not recognized under those set up menus.
In the profile info, services indicated are: BlueZ HID mouse & keyboard, OBEX Object Push, Headset Audio Gateway also is listed, which surprises me since I unchecked that box during set up.

Thanks for 0.2. How does the reconnect feature work? I can connect to my Ubuntu HTPC using "sudo hidd --connect [MAC address]" ok (it doesn't work if I don't use sudo), but the reconnect doesn't seem to do anything. Do I need to leave the PC in a particular state?
