Several months ago I was trying to use bluetooth on the pi. I made some
progress but not enough to make it useable.
Today I picked up a bluetooth keyboard and tried again. Happily the
ArchLinux bluetooth wiki page has been updated for bluez 5. I can
connect and use the keyboard.
Here's the problem: I need to have the bluetooth controller powered on
at start up and be able to use the keyboard to log in for there to be
any reason to use a bluetooth keyboard on the pi.
The wiki article has me create a 10-local.rules file which I did, but it
doesn't seem to work. Does anybody know anything about how to
troubleshoot this?
The line to add to /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules is:
ACTION=="add", KERNEL="hci0", RUN+="/usr/bin/hciconfig hci0 up"
I'm not sure how powering up bluetooth by itself connects my keyboard.
