I have a diNovo Edge which with its Logitech Bluetooth USB dongle is
usually totally OS independent (works for BIOS password or without any
drivers in any other OS, including Ubuntu 9.10).

This original bug is related to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/550288 and that
solution worked for me.

Apparently /lib/udev/rules.d/70-hid2hci.rules has been mangled in 10.04
LTS as a result of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/444420 possibly
making installation impossible unless you have a wired keyboard to use.

The simplest solution that worked for me from live session on 10.04 LTS
CD, comment out the following so it looks like this in
/lib/udev/rules.d/70-hid2hci.rules:

# Logitech devices
#KERNEL=="hiddev*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c70[345abce]|c71[34bc]", \
#  RUN+="hid2hci --method=logitech-hid --devpath=%p"

Reinsert your USB dongle and you should be good to go (unless you were
playing with the Connect button on the keyboard, then you may need to
press that and the button on the dongle).
