Does anyone know how to pair the N75 (currently AT&T branded) with the
Su-8w keyboard from Nokia? The keyboard came with some
software/drivers, but it does not install on my phone.
thanks,
K

I use an SU-8W with my N800 Linux tablet. Pairing it was a chore
because it has no good interface to tell you what it's doing except
those faint LEDs.

Let's go here and look at the PDF manual so we are on the same page of
the instructions....very important instructions.

Oh, sorry. Yes, you have to install the software on that card, same as a
driver into Windows. The phones don't come with it installed to save
memory for those who don't use it.
Do you have PC Suite installed so you can talk to your PC?

The procedure is to use PC Suite to install the driver to your phone, I
believe. Unlike Motorola's software, Nokia gives away PC Suite for free.
There are demos to watch on this webpage to see how to do it.

I do use the PC Suite on my one gaming computer. The others all run
Linux. I had only installed it to sync my contacts, and didn't
realize you could install software through it.
What your post did, was get me to search in a new way (since now su-8w
and N75 on google has this thread as the first result), I found on
Nokia's support page for the keyboard, these files:
http://europe.nokia.com/A4144291
and grabbed the S60 v 3 software, and have installed it. Pairing was
simplicity itself, by launching the the installed app and then adding
the keyboard.
Thank you for the help and the pointers!

Great! Glad you got it running.
Typing on it is a bit "different" for me. I can't do my usual 120wpm and
still have to think about the Fn shifting to get numbers and characters.
On the N800 Linux tablet, the two right-angle-symbol keys showed up as
page-up and page-down, which comes in handy. The other sellphone key
doesn't seem to impress the N800 to do anything, good or bad.
