I'm after getting some help to make a bluetooth keyboard work, I can't figure out how to get it to connect and stay connected so it will work to allow me to enter my password when switching the PC on. The bluetooth mouse works just fine.
user@pc:~$ bluetoothctl

I sometimes get a box that pops up that asks me to input a PIN. I don't know what the PIN is and the bluetooth keyboard won't type anything anyway. Sometimes it randomly connects, not sure why, but it loses the connection if I reboot. I have looked at the related questions but they have not helped.
Thanks.
