[Bug 1491484] Re: Anker keyboard doesn't send key events to krillin

 

After some more analysis the BT HID stack in the krillin kernel seems to
be horrible broken. We will not going to fix but replace this pretty
soon with a complete new bluetooth stack which will be based on an
recent upstream kernel (4.2). We have to wait until this is done until
we have a solution for this bug.

However just conencting a keyboard should be possible once the mentioned
kernel fix is merged and published, it will just not allow you to enter
anything.

Bug description:
  I have an Anker BT keyboard which seems to work fine on the Nexus 4
  with Android, but when I use it with Krillin and Ubuntu it doesn't
  seem to receive keypresses. In fact I have used a hack boot.img to get
  it to even connect. The exact model is : http://www.amazon.co.uk
