You have to add any users that need to access the bluetooth devices via D-Bus (e.g. kdebluetooth) to the netdev group, like this: # addgroup USER netdev then restart your session so that this takes effect. > Hope it was ok to report this for the kdebluetooth package, since this is > where the problem became manifest, even if it occured after a bluez-utils > upgrade. Hmm, I'm not sure the kdebluetooth maintainers can do much about this. bluez-utils already provides a NEWS.Debian entry explaining the problem, I'm not sure if d-i adds the default user to netdev. And maybe this should be mentioned in the release-notes if it's not yet, so that people doing an upgrade do not get bitten by this. regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
