I got Ligitech diNovo bluetooth keyboard and mouse which works just
fine on 6.3 diskless X-terminal. The Logitech USB bluetooth receiver
creates the links to the keybord/mouse and on the USB side just
emulates USB keybord/mouse ukbd0/ums0. The bluetooth OS subsystem is not
even running (no hcsecd), but you can switch it on if you want. So
there is no pairing from the hcsecd point of view.
