Marcel,

it should be started from /etc/init.d/bluetooth depending on your Linux distribution. You get a connection once you press a key on your keyboard.

I happen to have the m$ dongle that came with the keyboard. It does have a CCR chip, so is it flashable for HID proxy support?

also the DBT-122 that I have, sais the HCI version is 1.2, which would make it a (RevB3) but all the other info I see on it seem's to say otherwise?

if it really is (RevB3), isn't this chip also able to be upgraded to HID proxy support?

in general yes, but this particular one is not flashable. You will render it useless. Trust I already did this.

If you grap the GenericCSR.dfu firmware from Apple, then you can upgrade this one with an HID proxy capable firmware.
