Hi Peter, I did try it with, and without (the hint. line) with the same results (internal keyboard unusable). Could you please let me know how to find out which "slot" is responsible for the pseudo Bluetooth keyboard +mouse. I have an iBook that also has that USB based internal keyboard and mouse without Bluetooth that I will test.
