Hello everyone,

I can't connect a bluetooth keyboard to my linux PC, everything went well to connect a mouse but for the keyboard it asks me for a code which is not displayed to pair it.

I tried the keyboard under windows 10 and everything works well and the code (variable) to pair it is displayed well. Thank you in advance for the feedback

Totally unexpected, yes. This is clearly the dialog that is expected in case of legacy pairing for a device that has a display capacity. The device might be that old but it obviously does not have a display capacity.

You could capture the process up to that point with btmon and I'll have a look. Also check if sudo journalctl -u bluetooth.service shows anything related.
