Public bug reported: in 11.04, you would pair a phone via bluetooth. it would say oh this phone has dial up networking service, do you want to connect to that service? you would say ok, and it would launch a wizard. then you might select tmobile, the default plan, and hit ok. it would then add a mobile broadband connection to the plasma network widget. worked like a charm- tethering over bluetooth.
now in 12.04, the phone pairs. but it never launches the wizard to select the mobile provider. and it doesnt add a mobile broadband connection. same problem in ubuntu and kubuntu. four other distros also as soon as kde is upgraded to 4.8 sometimes the wizard doesnt launch. or it adds the mobile broadband connection correctly, BUT it doesnt actually work. just says configuring interface, then fails.
