YAHOO!!!! :)

http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/read.cgi?id=20040813&tid=1296099

So... here's what I think I did to make this work (I hope I can do this 
after I reboot :)

-> modprobe hidp
-> hcid
-> hidd --server
-> Press connect on MX900
-> hidd --connect 00:07:61:14:5C:A7
-> Wiggle mouse (I initially got stumped here because I forgot to add 
the following to my xorg.conf:
<stuff>
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "MX900IMPS"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "imps/2"
#    Option "Device"      "/dev/mouse"
     Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
#    Option "Resolution"        "256"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
     Option "Buttons" "5"
     Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection
...
    InputDevice 'TouchPad' 'CorePointer'
    InputDevice 'MX900IMPS' 'SendCoreEvents'
    InputDevice 'Keyboard1' 'CoreKeyboard'
</stuff>
I'm actually surprised they keyboard comes up as regular keyboard input 
(caps lock keeps sync too! :)  anyway...
-> sdpd
-> Turn on keyboard
-> hidd --connect 00:0A:95:3A:29:6D
-> hit "0000^M" very quickly
-> magic!

Now - I need some help with the PIN stuff...
I don't understand what is supposed to do what/be what...
Is my keyboard data encrypted or should I not type my passwords on it? 
(I have geek friends... who knows what evil they might enjoy one day :\)

currently, my /usr/bin/bluepin is:
root@immutable:~# cat /usr/bin/bluepin
#!/bin/sh
echo -n "PIN:0000"

aside from changing the number, is there any better I can do?

I tried compiling blue-pin (2.9) but I get this:

root@immutable:/usr/src/bluez29/bluez-pin-0.23# make
cc -O2 -g `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0 libglade-2.0 dbus-glib-1 
gconf-2.0` -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE -Wall 
-Os -fomit-frame-pointer -DPACKAGE=\"bluez-pin\" -DPREFIX=\"/usr/local\" 
-DPACKAGE_LOCALE_DIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\"   -c main.c -o main.o
Package dbus-glib-1 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `dbus-glib-1.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'dbus-glib-1' found
main.c:20:21: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
main.c:22:23: dbus/dbus.h: No such file or directory
main.c:23:28: dbus/dbus-glib.h: No such file or directory
In file included from main.c:25:
... and more errors
(This is on a full install of Slackware 10)

I'm getting the impression that when I try and connect to a device that 
wants a PIN, some GTK window is supposed to prompt me for a PIN? Can 
someone give me some pointers here?

I'm still happy! Should've washed the pool cue chalk off my hands BEFORE 
I started using my white keyboard tho ;\

the hidd is in bluez-utils-2.7 and needs a 2.6.7-mh1 kernel with
activated HIDP kernel module.

Pressing the connect button is only needed for the initial connection
and after that the mouse will reconnect to you. For that you must run
"hidd --server".

I propose that you install 2.6.7-mh1 with hidp.ko and use hidd.
