Subject: [Bluez-users] Using Bluez as a fake Bluetooth keyboard
Date: Fri, 25 May 2007 20:57:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070525185733.GA9401@elmicha> (raw)
Hi,
I'm trying to use my computer as a fake Bluetooth keyboard for a laptop
running Windows XP with Toshiba's Bluetooth stack.
With Collin Mulliner's xkbd-bthid [1] it works if I start xkbdbthid.sh
(as root) on my computer and "sudo hidd --search" on a Linux laptop.
That Windows laptop doesn't even try to really connect. It sees the HID
service on my computer and says "Prepare the connection to a Remote-HID
and click OK" (what should I prepare there?!), and if I click OK it
_immediately_ says "Error with the registry" or "Error trying to register"
(I don't understand what they mean with "Fehler bei der Registrierung").
At that point, hcidump sees not a single byte flying through the air.
Perhaps before clicking OK, the keyboard is supposed to search for a
HID host and connect on its own?
How could I do that with Bluez?
I'm using Bluez 3.10/3.11.
Regards...
Michael
