I've tried mate-bluetooth 1.3.0-1. I've noticed no difference regarding the behavior.
1. Still "Preferences" and "Set up new device..." are not working, with the same error messages as shown by <cereal>. 2. The transfer and browsing of files on the bluetooth device are working, IF the device was added by other way than "Set up new device..." in MATE. But this worked also before installing mate- bluetooth 1.3.0. So, no news here. 3. mate-bluetooth-applet hangs itself (not responding to left or right click) if I click on "Browse files on device...". I had to stop the process and restart it to make it work again. The error messages are again: (mate-bluetooth-applet:2626): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type `BluetoothClient' (mate-bluetooth-applet:2626): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `result != 0' failed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005649 Title: bluetooth software not working on Linux Mint 13 MATE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1005649/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
