>I didn't say it was a bad idea to allow users to enter a fixed PIN, I >said it would be a bad idea to replace random PINs altogether with >user-provided PINs. With a legitimate concern >That wouldn't work, a lot of devices will get out of pairing mode after >an unsuccesful pairing. And offers a good solution >My solution would be to have a button at the bottom of the device >selection page called "PIN options" (or similar). The bug has been closed by the original submitter (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560315#c14) , so it would probably be better to open a new bug. -- bluetooth-wizard unable to pair to fixed pin devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284994 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
