hey dudes. I fail (sort of) at pairing my pc with my phone via bluetooth. (sony ericsson k810i, pc uses broadcom dongle) I have a system where everything is up to date, bluez is installed etc. the configs are all pretty much default. I did need to enable HID2HCI_ENABLE="true" in /etc/conf.d/bluetooth otherwise the bluetoothd daemon would abort immediately after startup ( ? ) I can do `hcitool scan` and see my phone. But to pair... 1) the bluez-simple-agent way: I start `sudo bluez-simple-agent`,it listens, and on the phone I search new devices. phone cannot find pc :( 2) the blueman way: 2a ) If I run as regular user, I get: dieter@dieter-ws-a7n8x-arch ~ blueman-manager Loading configuration plugins _________ on_bluez_name_owner_changed (/usr/bin/blueman-manager:99) org.bluez owner changed to :1.6 Using gconf config backend _________ SetAdapter (/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/blueman/gui/DeviceList.py:293) None ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on org.bluez:/: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.33" (uid=1000 pid=5982 comm="/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/blueman-manager ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable" member="Introspect" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.bluez" (uid=0 pid=4642 comm="/usr/sbin/bluetoothd ")) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 578, in msg_reply_handler reply_handler(*message.get_args_list(**get_args_opts)) File "/usr/bin/blueman-manager", line 148, in on_bluez_name_owner_changed self.List = ManagerDeviceList(adapter=self.Config.props.last_adapter, inst=self) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/blueman/gui/manager/ManagerDeviceList.py", line 71, in __init__ DeviceList.__init__(self, adapter, data) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/blueman/gui/DeviceList.py", line 120, in __init__ self.SetAdapter(adapter) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/blueman/gui/DeviceList.py", line 324, in SetAdapter except dbus.DBusServiceUnknownError: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DBusServiceUnknownError' do i need to be in some kind of group or something? There was no post install message, nor info about this on the wiki page (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth) 2b) if I run blueman-manager as root I can pair (hooray). But actually I don't want to run stuff as root, nor do I want to use the bloatware that is blueman-manager. Dieter
