I would install the dongle in my XBMC Live Dharma Beta 2, any hepls?

Acer Revo 3610, XBMC Live Dharma Beta 2
I have a similar request.

The Ubuntu documentation is out of date and does not seem to work for the latest version of bluez.

What I have accomplished to date:

1) Install bluez ( sudo apt-get install bluez )
2) Install bluez-compat (sudo apt-get install bluez-compat)
3) Verify bluetooth dongle recognized (lsusb && hcitool dev)
4) Follow Ubuntu instructions to manually connect keyboard (hidd --connect)

What I need now, is a way to reconnect the keyboard on reboot. The newest version of bluez has changed the config file format, and I can't find any instructions for manual configuration.
thanks for your help,
I install dongle and connect it, in windows terminal the mini keyboard work, but when I press Alt+F2 with return to xbmc this message appared:
Code:
(process:304): GLib-WARNING **: gepwuid_r(): failed due to unknow user id (0)

edit: (this message appared in the xbmc window and the graphic interface not appared)
