How I’d like my bluetooth keyboard to pair:
scan on
pair ke:yb:oa:rd:ad:dr
[type in pairing code on keyboard]
(or just pairing first time in blueman)
How my keyboard has been pairing in the past:
scan on
pair ke:yb:oa:rd:ad:dr
[type in pairing code on keyboard]
[wait for keyboard to disconnect]
connect ke:yb:oa:rd:ad:dr
(pairing, typing code, waiting for disconnect, and connecting again in blueman)
What’s happening now is that the keyboard doesn’t want to fully work even if I try both of these. The light for the connection goes solid to indicate a connection but typing doesn’t work and it disconnects shortly after.
