It works perfectly after I followed the directions in the second post on http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/bluetooth-pairing-problems-602592/

This is an excellent remote control.

Great application, Soon I realized that I dont need to buy a PC remote and presenter. But, I think the slide show option doest work very well with Office 2007 ppt. It would be great if you can provide more options for slide show component so that it has better functionality. Adding a magnifier would also be great. Thanks for this great thing.

@Jon - Some ubuntu versions have a bug that prevents the pairing. Please follow the instructions here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=300336&postcount=7

I can't get this working with Ubuntu, following the steps described on Valerio's blog. Pairing seems impossible. With Windows, it works OK.

@John - BlueMaemo is open source, feel free to modify it :) . The ctrl+escape key combo is already implemented in the last svn version, will be include in the next BlueMaemo version.

I would have given this one full 5 stars but I am unable to use this with front row .... well I can but it only works in front row ... it wont invoke the ctrl+escape combo to launch front row .... but other than this small lack of function it works 100% I would really like it to be able to make our own themes or at lest give us the source so that we can edit and change things as we need them.

@Ramu - BlueMaemo is not a game, is a remote controller program.

This is an excellent application. I use it as a Remote Control with PowerDVD when watching movies on the PC.

The version 0.2-1 is much better, and I'm glad to see this project improving. I just have a suggestion for a next version. I know is can be kind of complicated but it would be helpful to have multiple profiles for the Media option, so I can configure one profile with the keys to control Winamp, and other to control PowerDVD, so I can change easily from one profile to the other without having to remap all the keys one by one.

Anyway, thanks for the app. Good Job
