I'm assuming you also have a user-land daemon that uses sockets to talk on bluetooth then pass the event to vkbd. Is there a place to find the userland daemon source at the moment or do you just have a private copy? I would like to help with this project since I've had my bluetooth keyboard sitting on the shelf for months waiting for support in freebsd and I have been doing some other work in bluetooth recently. >=20 > max --=20 I sense much NT in you. NT leads to Bluescreen. Bluescreen leads to downtime. Downtime leads to suffering. NT is the path to the darkside. Powerful Unix is.
