Public bug reported: In network manager, there are a few obsolete cellphones listed whose bluetooth connections I once used to go online. I can't remove them permanently. They don't show up in/etc/NetworkManager/system- connections/, I can't find them in gconf-editor either. I can remove them until the next reboot using either the "Edit connections..." dialog in the applet, or by issuing 'nmcli connection delete uuid XXXXX' at the command line, but they always show up again after the next reboot.
