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.
