How can I have a Bluetooth Keyboard Auto-Connect at Startup?
- by Grant
I have a bluetooth keyboard for my HTPC. I pair it with my computer via bluetooth, and it works fine. However, when I turn off the keyboard or my computer, it has to connect again (which requires me entering a passcode on the computer and keyboard) when I turn them back on. I've looked through many forums and through that I have found that I'm missing some seemingly vital bluetooth files:
/etc/default/bluetooth
/etc/init.d/bluetooth
/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
In the instructions that I've found online so far, I must change certain lines in any of these files. I am unable to, since they do not exist.
Am I missing a dependency or something? I've also tried installing Blueman but that didn't help at all.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick).
