Public bug reported:

I just installed gnome-bluetooth (with it's depencies) on my fresh
installation of edgy. Started the hcid:

# /etc/init.d/bluetooth start

and let my phone (a Samsung SGH Z-400) search for bluetooth devices, but
nothing shows up. Eventually I found out why:

# hciconfig 
hci0:   Type: USB
        BD Address: 00:0B:0D:33:C3:19 ACL MTU: 120:20 SCO MTU: 64:8
        UP RUNNING PSCAN 
        RX bytes:12425980 acl:47505 sco:0 events:13371 errors:0
        TX bytes:197812 acl:12973 sco:0 commands:240 errors:0

The iscan (whatever that means exactly...) thingie is not running. So I
turn it on manually:

# hciconfig hci0 piscan

And now it works, the phone finds the computer. I suppose this should be
the default behavior?

My hcid.conf, comments removed:

options {
        autoinit yes;
        security auto;
        pairing multi;
        passkey "xxxx";
}

device {
        name "%h-%d";
        class 0x3e0100;
        iscan enable; pscan enable; # does not seem to work?
        lm accept;
        lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park;
}

It's exactly like it was shipped with the package, except for the
passkey.
