Description claire robinson 2012-10-01 14:27:57 CEST
Pre Mageia 3 alpha 2 with default kde installation

I plugged in a bluetooth adapter and bluedevil started in the system tray.

I tried at add a device and it scanned and found my phone so clicked Next to continue with pairing.

My phone binged at me to accept a pairing request from localhost-0 but I was slow getting to it and it looks like the request timed out.

Bluedevil sits with a spinning icon as if it is still trying to connect but makes no other effort to continue the pairing and gives no indication it has failed.

syslog shows..

bluetoothd[912]: bluetoothd[912]: hci0: Cancel Pair Device (0x001a) failed: Invalid Parameters (0x0d)
bluetoothd[912]: hci0: Cancel Pair Device (0x001a) failed: Invalid Parameters (0x0d)


I'll attach a screenshot of bluedevil

I am unable to get beyond this point. It then adds the phone to the list of known devices so doesn't try to pair again.

Manually removing it from the list of known devices and trying again, it sits with the icon spinning and the phone asks for the pairing code.

IINM bluedevil should give a random code which should be entered on the phone to complete the pairing but this never happens.

Severity: normal => major
