Comment 52 for bug 292042

For those who have the mouse working but not the keyboard (after issueing a hidd --conect <BT-MAC> ), here is
what helped in my case:

As described earlier ther might e a problem with the keyboard using the synaptics driver.
After uninstalling the synaptics driver:

sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

the keyboard came to live (but only using hidd).

I added the hidd command into the /etc/rc.local and now hav the keyboard and mouse working after boot(on the
logon screen). Also tried to add a script that does something like
while ( sleep 10)
do
  hidd --connect <BT-MAC>
done

to reconnect the keyoard periodically (after idel timeout), but this did not work.
So, whenever the timeout occurs I'm loosing my input ability and have to reboot(not nice).

Also made the bluez 4.42 and ran that - did not chnage anything. Not sure really if I did everything correct here.
the make install only installs into /usr/local.
The bluetoothd stil is used from /usr/sbin.
So I changed /etc/init.d/bluetoooth and started from /usr/local/sbin - is this the right way ???
