Summarizing:
1) The Bluetooth manager in Ubuntu will show any type of bluetooth device,
however onlye devices that have the appropriate services for file browsing will
be browsable with Nautilus. So this is not a bluetooth (as in drivers,
hardware) bug, It is a "UI and library implementation of OBEX" problem -
oversimplifying here.
2) Until Ubuntu 7.10, adding the gnome-vfs-obexftp package was enough to make
this work *only* for devices that can be browsed (as mentioned above), 7.10
shipped with that bug.
3) Starting Ubuntu 8.04 gnome-vfs-obexftp is replaced with gvfs and gvfs does
not implement yet the Bluetooth backaend so Nautilus can handle browsing BT
devices filesystems
Workaround for Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy): install gnome-vfs-obexftp
Workaround for Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy): none, this is still in development.
So, yes, this is a duplicate of Bug #186973.
For more details about all the upstream issues, related bugs and more about the
move from gnome-vfs to gvs, see:
