Of course some recent applets do not work with an older bluez. (I have no Bluetooth icon either in the tray. ) I would not rely on applets to judge whether a device is recognized or not. I am certainly not a command line fanatic and I prefer GUI apps (when they work). But when they don't, you have to try some commands to make sure, in this case "lsusb", "hciconfig" (should show the Mac address and state "Running" -- if it does), "hcitool scan" (should see the phone and give it's Mac address). I must confess that I had trouble in pairing. But ultimately it worked. Anyway, you may have a different situation. I do connect Wammu to my Nokia 6021 phone through Bluetooth under Intrepid with a "ID 2001:f111 D-Link Corp. [hex] DBT-122 Bluetooth adapter" but I cannot guarantee that it works for all dongles and all phones on all computers for all purposes. -- Amitiés, Dominique. -- Some bluetooth dongles don't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289836 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
