Public bug reported: Right now, only Bluetooth legacy pairing (and I think SSP - JustWorks) is supported by the system settings. That means, newer keyboards, requiring Secure Simple Pairing with DisplayPin/EnterPin modes can't be paired from the ui.
This is the dialog that's missing on the touch version of system settings in order to pair "newer" keyboards: http://i.imgur.com/TetqbWJ.png At the moment, it is required to use bluez-simple-agent from commandline to pair such a keyboard. For completeness, this is the steps required to pair from command line: * put keyboard into discovery mode * hcitool scan * bluez-simple-agent hci0 <device-addr> * now bluez-simple-agent will instruct you to enter that pin, like the missing dialog should do * qdbus --system org.bluez /org/bluez/hci0/<device-addr> org.bluez.Input.Connect() * Now go to the system settings app, and check the "Connect automatically when detected" box ** Affects: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1415509 Title: Secure Simple Pairing dialogs not implemented yet To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1415509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
