Thank you for the information,

I currently use bluez-utils_3.36-2_i386.deb and bluetooth_3.36-2_all.deb
on my debian sid system this is version 3.36 as suggested. I don't know
if the patch is applied on the package. Should the device have worked on
my system?

But I am kind of curious what is needed to get such device working in
the source code and how keys are mapped.

Kind regards,

Jelle
