Hi,
I've added some extra informations based on your bug report to README.Debian,
here is the patch:
--- debian/README.Debian (revision 153)
+++ debian/README.Debian (working copy)
@@ -55,14 +55,16 @@
from http://www.bluez.org/patches.html.
Then change HIDD_ENABLED in /etc/default/bluez-utils to 1 and restart
-bluez-utils. That enables the hidd server. You must then connect to
-your keyboard or mouse using hidd --connect <bdaddr>. On first
-connection, pairing is likely. Mice normally have a preset PIN which
-should be in the manufacturer's documentation, try 0000. For keyboards,
-type the PIN on the Bluetooth keyboard and hit enter, and then type it
-in on a cable-attached keyboard to pair. In future your keyboard or
-mouse should reconnect to your computer automatically. You must invoke
-hidd as root.
