I recently purchased the new diNovo Media Desktop from Logitech. It consists of four components: 1) a laptop-style, low-profile keyboard, a separate keypad/media controller, a MX900 optical mouse, and a USB/Bluetooth hub that also acts as a cradle for recharging the mouse?s batteries. It was a bit expensive, but I needed both a new keyboard and mouse, and it looks oh so cool.
I?ve been using it with my Windows machine at home for a month or so, and I simply love it. The drivers that shipped with it were a bit goofy when assigning functions to the mouse buttons. You were unable to use the middle button (the wheel) as a middle button. It had to be assigned to some artificial function like AutoScrolling, etc. Luckily, an updated driver was available online that allowed you to keep the button as a simple click.
Since I don?t use my Windows machine all that much, I really wanted to take the setup to work. But at work, I use Linux. So tonight, I figured I?d try it out with my laptop to see how well it might work. I found a number of interesting sources that discussed getting Bluetooth working, and specifically getting this keyboard and mouse to work. I was quite hopeful.

Before doing anything special, I figured I?d just plug it in and see. I?d already setup my kernel config for bluetooth support. At first, nothing happened. I then modprobed hci_usb which is the bluetooth driver for supporting a bluetooth hub through USB. I removed and reinserted the hub and voila all worked with no more hassle. The keyboard and mouse work beautifully. The media pad works with and without numlock. I?ve even assigned most of the extra ?media? keys through acme in gnome.
I am very syched. Now, I just need to lay down the money for a good flat panel to take my working environment into the current century. Life is better with toys!
