 Hello,
I have recently bought a bluetooth "Smart Keyboard" for my Nokia 770.
But this keyboard, doesn't have a sdp server and was not supported by 
bluez-tools.

(Here are the caracteristics of my keyboard: 
        bd addr : 00:0A:3A:2E:7B:AC
        name : KEYBOARD
        CoD (Class of Device/Service) : 0x001f00
)

So i have make some change in your source code to support him.
Here is my patch and the patched tar.gz (with my makefiles, and i have 
verify that files wasn't modified recently on CVS).

As you will see i have created a new file devices.h and i have suggested 
an architecture to manage different peripherals.

As I work for Sagem Communication, this keyboard now will work on our 
Sagem Linux phone (in developpement).
(I Gonna make it work now on my Nokia 770, but I don't know how to do it 
yet, as it use dbus... and i am asking me if that was really necessary, 
and if hidd is used on the Nokia 770...).

I notice the hidd deamon may need some minor improvement now, like forking 
and doing a "search device" on a signal event. Or reading a configuration 
file that contains knows devices and connect them on other signal... (or 
using dbus... ?). (just thinking... trying to share ideas...).

PS: I don't have a "secure" mail server to suscribe myself to bluez-devel 
mail list. So could you please add one of my email to the bluez-devel mail 
list ?
(personnal email: jjbrucker@free.fr, professionnal email: 
jean-jacques.brucker@sagem.com, should be the one in sender field of this 
email).

PS2: Any comments about my patche are welcome...

I have put a file fakehid.txt in the CVS with the characteristics of
this keyboard and also the presenter device.

Make sure to send me one for testing ;)

The Nokia 770 has no supported HID support. However you can install an
applet that gives you keyboard support. This however runs hidd and so it
should not be a big problem to integrate it.

The hidd needs D-Bus support and a small redesign. However at the moment
we are just finishing the D-Bus support in hcid and its sdpd integration
and so it might take some time before we start looking at hidd. However
feel free to propose something.

No idea what this means. Nobody needs a secure mail server to subscribe
to bluez-devel. Simply use the webform to subscribe.

It needs a little bit nicer and cleaner integration work, but it seem a
good step forward to make this keyboard work under Linux.

The message I send before was too big (cause of the joined tar.gz) and 
Marcel is "abwesend". As i suggest he is the list moderator, my precedent email could be 
unread for a month. That is why I re-send this lighter email.

PS: Sorry to use Lotus Notes (running with wine). But I don't have direct 
access to internet in my office room and I can't send "better" emails.

I already approved your other email. Who says that am I not here. I
don't use any of these vacation modules on my server. This must be some
Lotus Notes crap.
