I have installed Blueman. But I want to disable it on KDE startup so that whenever I turn on my Bluetooth, blueman shouldn't take over the KDE's Bluedevil.
View 9 RepliesThe blueman applet is killing my processor from time to time. The crazy part is that I do not have blue tooth installed in this system. It appears to be a bug upstream and looks like it has been reported but in the mean time is there a way to disable blueman?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a question regarding Bluetooth with Bluedevil. Finally I got a connection working in one direction: sending files from my mobile (Google Nexus One with Android 2.3.3) to the computer. But I can not send files from my computer to the phone. I also tried to send files from my desktop to my Laptop and it fails. I also tried it the other way around: from Laptop to Desktop... fail.
What is it? Is it still a bug in Bluedevil and all I can do is wait? Or is there some package missing? The following packages (regarding bluetooth) are installed:
bluedevil
bluez
libbluetooth 3
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
I don't believe that it is hardware related, because it works one-way... If I should post logfiles or whatever.
+ I had struggled with getting it to work on 11.3, KDE 4.4. Brought in the KDE 4.5 repos and did zypper dup with fabulous success. Bluedevil 1.0-2.9 was a charm.
+ We're only days away from 11.4, and that was so painless I figured I'd go ahead and upgrade to 11.4. After hours of RTFM on zypper I got all the 11.4 repos (all I could find) and did zypper dup again.
+ Smooth, painless. Geen probleme.
+ Except: - the upgrade also upgraded bluedevil to 1.0-3.8.1. I've tried rolling back but the problems remain.
+ The problems are: - I cannot send files from the PC to the phone, although I can send files from the phone to the PC.
- The PC prompts are very short-lived and are obscured by the taskbar unless you are primed for them to bring up the notification manager instantly, so pairing from the phone to the PC is difficult
-I cannot browse the phone despite the app suggesting I can. I also had to manually install a directory (/home/$user/$phone_name) to avoid an error message. Presumably the app tries to mount the phone to this directory, but it does not succeed.
+ I do think I have all the necessary devel files, but would love to do a file list comparison with someone who has this working on OS 11.4/KDE 4.5.5 Yes, I know this is beta so don't abuse me, I'm more than willing to do trials and submit explicit data as I have here. But I also would like to get it to work. I had it working on 11.3 / KDE 4.5.5. FWIW, pretty much everything else works flawlessly on OS 11.4. Firefox 4 beta has a few problems, but that is not an OS 11.4 issue...
I am trying to connect my samsung mobile to a laptop, with bletooth. In Ubuntu it worked normally. I have installed opensuse 11.3 KDE and tried to connect when KDE bluetooth module gave me an error that my mobile does not support services. I have solved the problem by installing nautilus from official repo and blueman from factory repo and now I can connect to my mobile with blueman and browse the files with nautilus. Is there a known problem with bluetooth and kde or something is wrong with my opensuse?

Is there a setting I need to activate be alerted that updates are available?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have Fedora 10 and I'd been holding out on updating to 11 and now 12 is out. It popped up asking me to update so I decided to finally update. When I come back to it, it said /boot was running low on memory and that I should delete an old kernel to free up space. Well shouldn't the updater have deleted fedora 10? Sorry I'm new to all this linux stuff. What should I do now?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a usb bluetooth dongle I've connected to my machine. The device appears just fine and using hcitool scan I can scan for device with no trouble. However blueman doesn't seem to register the device even when I force the applet to display and try add a new device it won't scan/see any of the bluetooth devices. Has anyone come across something similar or would know how I should proceed?

But when I start blueman-applet the icon on the toolbar is like white with a red 'x' in the centre of it, which doesn't seem right. I'm using fluxbox as my WM so don't know if that's the reason, but blueman isn't responding when I try to setup the device with gui (blueman-applet). My groups for my user are.

I'm running slackware current. Blueman works perfectly, except for DUN. I can connect to DUN service, but I don't know to open the connection. I've tried to find help on the blueman website, and I've I've found this page [URL].
Where says to install plugins to use DUN. Before I screw up my blueman configuration .. those plugin are already included in the blueman package? I can't find where to download them. If they are already included, what I've to do to use DUN?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm a recent convert from Linux Mint to Debian for use with an HTPC media center.
I've been using Kodi + Playstation BD Remote for some time successfully with Mint.
I'm having issues getting the remote to work under Debian.
Typically I've been able to pair with Blueman and connect to the Input Service, however, under Debian, There are no "Input Serivce" options in the menus of Blueman..?
I don't know if this is because I'm missing some package that enables this or because my remote is not recognized as an input device. I suspect it is the former, because a bluetooth keyboard I have doesn't expose the "Input Service" menu option either.
I recently Installed debian 8.2 on my toshiba satellite l505-es5034. Using cinnamon desktop.
Did googling regarding how to get my insignia usb bluetooth dongle functioning and ended up installing blueman.
It can search for devices but when i try to connect to my logitech bluetooth adapter for my stereo it reads "Connection Failed: No such file or directory"
saw on arch linux wiki that this may happen if the user isnt in the lp group so I added the user to the group and still the same result.
I tried connecting to my phone with same result. No issue pairing, connection failed.
Well I finally got Bluez running correctly. Now the problem is kbluetooth or blueman recognize my device. Here is the output of hciconfig -a

I've had issues with the later versions of Ubuntu, so in an effort to road-test Firefox 3.5 on Hardy I'd like to change my Karmic/Hardy dual boot to a Hardy/Hardy dual boot, and follow the instructions in [URL] to put the Mozilla build of 3.5 on the new installation.
I can't see any reason why a Hardy/Hardy dual-boot shouldn't work, but does anyone know of any issues with this I might not be aware of?
I have the Faenza Icon Theme installed, but it seems blueman-applet could care less. The applet's icon does change to use the Bluetooth application icon, but when it is active or disabled, it uses the icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/24/status/.
Part of the problem may be that Faenza has the status icon named bluetooth-active/bluetooth-disabled instead of blueman-active/blueman disabled. However, even if I rename these in /usr/share/icons/Faenza/24/status/, nothing changes. If I copy the icons into the first location mentioned and rename them, it does work. I don't have a problem doing this, but if I ever change themes, I'll have to do it again. Anyway I can make it use the icon theme?
For anyone using Blueman with Testing (Squeeze), todays Python upgrade to version 2.6 stops it from working due to a Blueman bug. This has been fixed in blueman version 1.21-4, which you can install from SID if you don't want to wait the 10 days for the normal migration.
