Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth
When I plug in my USB bluetooth dongle the led starts blinking, but the
bluetooth icon does not appear on the panel.
If I open bluetooth-preferences from the menu, it says "no device connected"
(or something similar, I am translating from Italian).
Ater searching on the web, I did a chmod 666 /dev/rfcomm: now I instead have a
big button saying "Turn on bluetooth", but clicking that will do nothing.
The dongle works, as I tested it on Windows and also on Ubuntu, "hcitool
scan" correctly finds my cellphone.
IIRC I had this problem also with Lucid.
My dongles is branded "eXagerate", lsusb says its a "Bus 002 Device 002:
ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)"
