Public bug reported: when setting up a new bluetooth device, the wizard opens with a pane on the left indicating the various steps. One of the "possible" steps is "device setup failed". Now all the other steps make sense but this glaring oversight indicates that one should not be confident about the pairing process and expect failing as a logical progression of the process.
Is there no other way? I would think rather have some dynamic step so that if the process fails, the text that says "device setup" changes to "device setup failed" while the main pane explains. It makes no sense having a permanent option saying "device setup failed" IT LOOKS BAD Sorry for the delay in reporting the bug. Previous releases e.g. lucid were fairly stable even in alpha but oneiric just got usable enough for me after beta. only tried bluetooth now.
