yes, i noticed that too. strange... another unusual behavior is that the
keyboard does not seem to close baseband connection. for example if i
start bthidd(8) and press keys on the keyboard, it will connects to the
bthidd(8) as expected. in other words baseband connection is initiated
from the keyboard. however, if i kill bthidd(8) the keyboard keeps
baseband connection open. now if start bthidd(8) the keyboard does not
work. bthidd(8) waits for it to connect (because reconnect_initiate is
set to true), but keyboard does not connect. you can get the keyboard
re-connect by power cycling it or manually disconnecting baseband with
hccontrol(8).
also i think there is a bug in bthidd(8) kbd.c (kbd_process_keys
function). i think it needs a rewrite :)
thanks,
