(feb 12 2017 - opensuse tumbleweed - Gnome)
Either keyboard or trackpad works fine, but the 2 together is causing much problem. The Zik3 pairs OK, but sounds chops very badly at some point, where it becomes unusable...
Remove tlp packages.
Add the following to the bottom of your /etc/pulse/system.pa and do a pulseaudio -k to restart the pulseaudio deamon (or reboot your box)
load-module module-bluez5-device
load-module module-bluez5-discover
Apple bluetooth keyboard (not the newest one but the one which still has like regular batteries) bluetooth hints
Could have possibly be done via a UI but have not tried.
- Shutdown any mac that has that keyboard registered
- Enter
bluetoothctl
agent KeyboardDisplay
default-agent
scan on
Press the side button of the keyboard until your keyboard enters pairing mode
A new device should pop-up

I then ungeekly went to the bluetooth menu of gnome, and could see the keyboard. ![alt text][keyboard-mini-bluetooth] [keyboard-mini-bluetooth]: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/madchap/misc/master/images/mini_bluetooth_keyboard.png
The first try to bind it failed oddly, but the second time when straight in.
Pretty much the same as for the keyboard

Trust, and pair, as for the above devices.
The headset will even autoconnect when powered on (provided no other paired devices are there before, but that's a known behavior).
The sound becomes so choppy though, it is not really usable. Some talk about radio interferences, I don't know. Only with Linux then. It happens when using the A2DP sink output, HSP output is not choppy, but forget about having a proper sound then.

Archlinux has some awesome doc: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_headset
Let me know if you can make it work perfectly. (Macs are good for that...)
UPDATE: Looks like adding threadirqs to the kernel boot params makes a HUGE different in my openSUSE tumbleweed!
sudo sed -i 's!quiet showopts"!quiet showopts threadirqs"!' /etc/default/grub
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Reboot.
If gdm pulseaudio is taking over your own user's pulseaudio process, kill the gdm's one. This will free a2dp sink for your use. Or disable it altogether with :
/var/lib/gdm/.config/pulse/client.conf (or whatever your gdm's home happen to be)
autospawn = no
daemon-binary = /bin/true
While doing this, don't be surprised if your desktop no longer make any song.
Seems related to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58746 -- bluetooth buffering and pulseaudio shit (man... nearly a decade we hear pulseaudio is s--- hahaha... like evolution MTA ^^, but well. I guess it is still better than what it used to be. We just hoped it was even better!)

Add this to your .Xmodmap
keycode 65 =space space
Found at http://askubuntu.com/questions/530325/tilde-key-on-mac-air-with-ubuntu
Find the file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc, backup it, then open and comment out the line:
key <LSGT> { [ less, greater, bar, brokenbar ] };
And on the next line, add the following:
key <LSGT> { [ grave, asciitilde, grave, asciitilde ] };
If you need to change configuration for another locale, check the folder /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ and find the file corresponding to the locale you want to change.
To apply the changes, you have to remove all xkb cache files:
rm -rf /var/lib/xkb/*
