That is true. It seems not to be a standart keyboard. One time I tried
to connect it with my Android tablet, but without success. Some Linux
distributions had also problems with it. But it works under Ubuntu and
OpenSuse.
It doesn't matter. I put it away and use another USB-Keyboard.
Your answer saved me more time for searching. I will get rid of the
Bluetooth keyboard and use my time for getting deeper into OpenBSD :-) .
