[FDOM] Bluetooth kbd?

[Staley, Daniel L]

I have had no trouble connecting to my iGo bluetooth keyboard initially.  However, after a suspend I have noticed that bluetooth will no longer work.  Perhaps the device never gets powered back on?
Has anyone else noticed this?

A nice zenity gui for connecting to bluetooth keyboards (or really anything bluetooth) was written by ScaredyCat a while back.  I use it and it works great!
(see www.bufferunderflow.com?entry=6 for pics and a quick video using the keyboard)

I turned on Bluetooth in the settings screen (I also tried in the
'services' screen), but I didn't have any luck.

Let me try that again...

According to both 'Services' and 'Settings', Bluetooth is 'on', but
hciconfig returns zilch.
