I tested this in Ubuntu 11.10 and Ubuntu 12.04 and got the same result. Then based on workaround from this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/obexd/+bug/872044 I tested it again. With disabling SSP the device is shown in Nautilus but browsing does not work but with disabled SSP there is one difference. $ gvfs-mount obex://[B8:F9:34:44:B4:10] Error mounting location: Connection refused This problem is gone but there is another one: Error mounting location: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. Using obexfs and mounting the device enables browsing the device with Nautilus! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899858 Title: regression in gvfs to connect/browse using obex To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/899858/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
