Title:
gnome-bluetooth cannot use pin = 1234
Status in GNOME Bluetooth:
Expired
Status in gnome-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth
I have a BT serial port with a pin of 1234. I cannot pair to this
device with gnome-bluetooth. Every attempt results in gnome-bluetooth
requiring a 6 digit random pin. I was able to pair when I uninstalled
gnome-bluetooth and installed bluez-gnome. Bluez-gnome will actually
send a 4 digit 1234 pin and connect. I am in the process of setting up
the serial port in Ubuntu so that I can communicate with the device.
My hope is that this will be fixed in Lucid so that I will not have to
go through the text based setup of rfcomm for this device.
In addition, gnome-bluetooth is very reluctant to connect to the PANU
served by my phone. It was set up and after a number of tries I was
able to exchange PIN numbers and connect. Unfortunately, I was only
able to connect to the PANU once. With bluez-gnome, it works all the
time every time.
For what it is worth, the OBEX file connection to my Nokia has been
very robust under either manager.
My BT dongle reports as this one:
Bus 005 Device 007: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth
Dongle (HCI mode)
