Sorry, I was refering to VDVsx post regarding the enabler for HID keyboards. I don't have much experience of Linux, so I would like to restrain from messing around with system files as for now as I'm not sure I can fix it if I mess something up
. I can try to dig more about this but can be a great waste of time if they removed it for a reason [1] - https://garage.maemo.org/projects/btkeyboard/

Hi everyone -
I hope the BT keyboard issue will gain traction. It's practically a deal-breaker for me if it won't work. I use an Apple BT keyboard on an e61 and it's godlike, even with an AZERTY French layout. There is another thread on this topic in the forum: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...tooth+keyboard
I would help if I could, but what can I do but wait?
