>> There is nothing in the log about attempting to start dhclient. > This is strange... Did you start blueman-applet from the command line? I probably did the first time I used it. By the time I used it to connect with the phone, it was several reboots later and had been started by XFCE's session manager. I did happen to kill it and start it from the command line, and saw some debug messages scroll by, but nothing obvious.
