Hi Christopher, I confirm that this bug also affects 1.99~alpha1-1 version (blank settings page and no receiving files).
To answer your question - I tested with both BlueZ 4 and 5 versions (using 5.21-3 from testing and 4.101-4.1 from snapshots) and I found out that this bug only appears when using the newer BlueZ 5 version. With old BlueZ 4 everything seems to work fine (including the settings page mentioned by Tom). So for now I'm sticking with BlueZ 4. Best Regards, Szymon
