I just found this Forum on Logitech!
Hi Great News, With the launch of new Yellow Dog Linux 6, the MediaBoard Pro support is sorted out. Pls try out the following : 1. Follow the normal install procedure for YDL6; 2. Launch YDL 6 in KDE mode (supposely also work in other GNOME or E16 mode) with root; 3. Issue command #hidd --server -n 4. Turn on / reset the keyboard, and wait for a few seconds, the screen will appear something like this : hidd [xxxx]: Rejected connection from unknown device AA;BB:CCD:EE:FF 5. Press ctrl-c to close hidd and write #hidd -connect AA:BB:CCD:EE:FF 6. Issue command to verify the keyboard connection #hidd --search Now, the MediaBoard keyboard shall work remotely even after the YDL6 is restarted / rebooted. Have Fun !! ----- Original Message ---- From: Steve Bell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Discussion List for New Yellow Dog Linux Users <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2008 4:02:15 PM Subject: Re: Logitech bluetooth keyboard Thanks very much for the help. I was able to get my keyboard to work. As you can tell, I'm new to Linux and not used to command lines, not since my DOS days, but am learning. Any help getting Adobe flash player to work, such as for YouTube, would be appreciated.
