[Bug 245319] New: Bluetooth file transfer problems
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=245319 Summary: Bluetooth file transfer problems Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 0plus Platform: i686 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Mobile Devices AssignedTo: behlert@novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Not sure where to put this as bluetooth-utils and gnome-bluetooth are affected, I think Mobile Devices isn't a bad category for this issue. When setting up bluetooth there are two instances for file transfer: 1. YaST/Hardware/Bluetooth/Advanced Daemon Configuration/OPD ( File transfer services ) 2. Computer/More Applications/System/Bluetooth File Sharing When 1.) is enabled, file transfer from an external device is unconditionally ( no pairing required ) and files end up in /var/lib/bluetooth/opd When 2.) is enabled a small icon appears in the task bar and file transfers from an external device are challenged by pairing, if accepted, files are transferred to the desktop. When both are enabled 1) always takes over and renders 2) completely useless. Apart from that, it would make sense to integrate the two task bar icons for Bluetooth File Sharing (gnome) and Bluetooth Applet (gnome) into one for clarity. Also the control for file transfer could be moved from the Application Menu to the Bluetooth Applet icon. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

One issue is, that the help text for OPD in the YaST module apparently is not good enough. It should explain that if you enable this, it will take over all the OPD transfers. Or (maybe better :-) We should just drop the possibility to configure OPD with YaST. It is an expert tool and normal users always should use the desktop tools. Could you please file the issues with the two different GNOME applets as a separate bug against GNOME? it really has not much to do with the first issue. GNOME applets could warn if the opd is already running, but that's all that those issues have in common :-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I'd say we should just drop it, or we should at least put a warning sticker before it.

It should be done in the desktops itself, and if a desktop has no support for that (windowmaker or so), well, the opd is still on the media. Seife, please add a short Readme to bluez-utils for opd if not already present. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
