Hi Marcel

Thanks for the quick response.

Trust Apple to almost conform to standard, but now quite :P.

hcidump -X -V gave me an error message that -V was an invalid option. 
However I ran it without that option and here's the output.

lampshade:/home/andre# hcidump -X

during which I ran these commands:

lampshade:/etc/network# hciconfig hic0 auth
You have new mail in /var/mail/andre
lampshade:/etc/network# hidd --search
Searching ...
        Connecting to device 00:0A:95:3E:CC:74
Can't create HID control channel: Connection timed out
lampshade:/etc/network# hciconfig hic0 auth
lampshade:/etc/network# hidd --conn 00:0A:95:3E:CC:74
Can't create HID control channel: Host is down

During this time I tried inputting 0000 and hit enter on the Apple keyboard.

Is this an expierence that most people encounter with one of these 
keyboards? I'm just wondering if I should start thinking of trying my 
hand at my first howto describing how to get this up and working.

Thanks Again

Andre
