Description dukat 2009-04-03 11:22:50 UTC 
Version:           Kbluetooth4 0.3 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I cannot pair my Logitech DiNovo Bluetooth keyboard.

To reproduce

Fire kdeblutooth4 -> Device Manager
Hit New ... -> Next -> Input Device

The Device Search Box appears. I put my keyboard in discoverable mode and it appears on the list

I select it, the summary screen appears, -> Next -> Finished setup, all fine

Then, the PIN box appears and here it doesn't work. I'm supposed to enter a PIN on my computer (whic is kinda moot, but luckily I have a laptop), and then to repeat it on the BT Keyboard. This is not possible. I cannot pair the keyboard.

Previously, in the old kbluetooth (and also under Windows) if I wanted to pair the keyboard, I was presented a random PIN from the wizard, which I would have to re-type on the keyboard. That always worked.

I also have the Logitech MX Laser mouse, which pairs without problems with kbluetooth4

I'm having the same issue with a Dell Latitude D830 and a Dell wireless keyboard.  I'm using the latest Kubuntu updates with no extra software.

Hi
Can you test the pairing with your keyboards with the 0.4 version?
Also, are they pairing with other software? (like blueman).

Thanks!

If depends of your hardware, in some devices you have to type 0000.
