Currently when a modem device registered by Blueman is connected,
NetworkManager reports that there is no associated bluetooth device.
The if statement responsible for this ought to be reporting an error and
returning if the driver is named, but not named "bluetooth".
Unfortunately, the true result of strcmp(), zero, has been flipped,
meaning only the device name "bluetooth" isn't acceptable as a bluetooth
device.
The solution to this was found by Andrew Guskoff, he describes it here;
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=147880
I picked it up from the Ubuntu/ Arch Linux bug report;
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/583728
This fixes the problem for me with NetworkManager 0.9.4 (Ubuntu 12.04)
and a Nokia N900 phone, Andrew (obviously) and another user who reported
trying it on the log.
I've attached a patch I created against a checkout from the
NetworkManager git repository.
Cheers,
Nick
