After adding these to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ubuntu intrepid main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ubuntu intrepid main"
I noticed some "New in repository" items via Synaptic Package Manager. Ran those - had to uninstall "bluez-compat" This installed libbluetooth3 and blueman (0.5) and some other items. Now I start blueman after PC boots to gnome and its all working. blueman also has a much better interface Here is an extract from my Commit Log for Sun Dec 7 2008 Reinstalled the following packages: bluetooth (4.12-0ubuntu5) bluez (4.12-0ubuntu5) bluez-alsa (4.12-0ubuntu5) bluez-cups (4.12-0ubuntu5) bluez-gnome (1.8-0ubuntu1) bluez-gstreamer (4.12-0ubuntu5) bluez-utils (4.12-0ubuntu5) gnome-bluetooth (0.11.0-0ubuntu3) libbluetooth3 (4.12-0ubuntu5) libbtctl4 (0.10.0-1ubuntu1) libgnomebt0 (0.11.0-0ubuntu3) obex-data-server (0.3.4+svn1951-0ubuntu1) Reinstalled the following packages: bluez (4.12-0ubuntu5) Upgraded the following packages: bluetooth (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez-alsa (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez-compat (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez-cups (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez-gstreamer (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 bluez-utils (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 libbluetooth3 (4.12-0ubuntu5) to 4.23-0ubuntu2~git20081206 obex-data-server (0.3.4+svn1951-0ubuntu1) to 0.4.3~svn081116-2 Removed the following packages: bluetooth bluez bluez-alsa bluez-audio bluez-gstreamer bluez-utils gnome-phone-manager Installed the following packages: blueman (0.6-r121-0ubuntu3~ppa1i) bluetooth3 (3.26-0ubuntu14) bluez3-audio (3.26-0ubuntu14) bluez3-utils (3.26-0ubuntu14) > this failed, conflict with bluez-compat dnsmasq (2.45-1ubuntu1) dnsmasq-base (2.45-1ubuntu1) 1.
