I have a tool for userland and work with Bluetooth LE mouse based on bthidd, but keyboard support is disabled. https://github.com/takawata/FreeBSD-BLE To recognize LE device. 1. scan LE device and think 2. invoke ./lepair ${BTHADDR} (-r option required if address is random address) 3. add hcsecd.conf in lesecd directory by copy-n-paste from lepair output. 4. ./lesecd 3. in lehid directory, lehid -s ${BTADDR} Then keyboard may be recoginzed, but will not do useful thing. > On Wed, Aug 16, 2023 at 2:24 PM Dmitry N.
