Hey all,

I just got a logitech mx5000 combo and discovered that it won't work natively with my powerbook's bluetooth module. When connected through bluetooth, the volume slider works, but the rest of the keys don't. But, when I connect to the keyboard with the supplied bluetooth dongle, it works fine.

I assume these are driver issues, and if I could somehow trap whatever gibberish that the keyboard is sending through bluetooth, I could get the thing working without the dongle... However, I honestly have no idea where to start.

- How are drivers managed in OS X?
- How are keypresses detected? Is there a way for me to trap and look at all the interrupts that are being generated over bluetooth?

Any help would be much appreciated =)
