Seems like it ought to be a simple task :-). The more I poke around with bluetooth searches on the web, the more it seems like I had the good fortune to buy my bluetooth keyboard at the exact same time hidd is going away and the new hcid input server is replacing it. Perhaps this will all work if I start an annoying gnome session and use the gnome bluetooth tools to setup the files I need in the /var/lib/bluetooth directory. Hopefully I won't have to run gnome all the time to get the keyboard to continue to work...
