ZBitx Bluetooth ?

 

Hello everyone,

I understand that the zBitx has Bluetooth onboard the Raspberry Pi. Is there a way I can set up my Bluetooth keyboard with a track mouse to the Raspberry Pi on the zBitx? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks Everyone,
Robert, AG6LK?
 

Enable Bluetooth on the desktop turn on your keyboard and tell Bluetooth to scan for devices. ?You can then pair from there. ?On Linux I usually have a problem where Bluetooth wants to repeatedly disconnect from the device until the first reboot. ?After that works fine.?
 

I have been having problems where my keyboard keeps disconnecting , I haven't gone too deep to see what the issue is yet.?

You will need to connect the hdmi cable.??
Im trying to see if I can get a remote desktop client working.? So you don't need to always connect the hdmi to it?

I have no machine running on mine. ?Got the 3B v7 deb package installed. ?I use no machine on most of my computers. ?

The keyboard and pointing device I used was a BT thumb keyboard and trackpad. It works, but typing is slow due to the keys only being about 4mm across.

I'm replacing that little BT keyboard with a 2.4 ghz keyboard and trackball combo. All it requires is a type-A to microSD adapter. But I used a Bluetooth peripheral at first. BT was already active. So all I had to do was scan for available devices and verify the device I had was the one I wanted.
