Hi!
I wanted to know if Bluetooth keyboards are likely to work on FreeBSD.
I'm looking at this marvellous object to be precise:
http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/8193/
They say that they "were able to get the Bluetooth Virtual Laser
Keyboard to work with Mac OSX using the built-in bluetooth support in
the OS."
then it should work in releng_6 and -current.
I am running Apple Bluetooth keyboard on -CURRENT. I order to accomplish
that, I have followed steps outlined by Eric Anderson here
http://destari.blogspot.com/2006/01/setting-up-bluetooth-mouse-on-freebsd.html
There seems to be a quirk in the bthidd which causes it reattach
keyboard every couple of minutes, so I am accustomed to seeing vkbd
10000 being attached but these seem to be harmless enough. YMMV,
though.
hmmm... i'd like to get more information on this. does this happen
when you type on the keyboard? or when keyboard is idle?
if this happens when the keyboard is idle, then, i'd guess, the
keyboard simply kills the bluetooth connection to conserve battery. if
bluetooth connection was in fact killed then bthidd(8) will close
vkbd(4) device and it will, in turn, detach vkbd(4) keyboard.
in any case, could you please get an hci dump (binary) when this
happens and sent it to me? or could you please tell me how to
reproduce this locally?
I see something like this too, but with mice. I use a microsoft
bluetooth explorer mouse, and when it disconnects and goes into battery
sleep mode, and then comes back, it registers a new vkbd device. Here's
some snippets:
[...]
hmm... could you please post hid descriptor from your microsoft
bluetooth explorer mouse?
also, binary hci dump (that captures detach/reattach event) would be nice.
thanks,
max
