Dear openSuSers, The oddity of this issue is verging the incredible!: I have a Nokia Lumia 710 smart-phone, running WP-7.8 and I tried to send a picture from it to my laptop which is running openSUSE 12.3 64 bits, both from being logged in KDE or Gnome DE, but never the picture is sent to the computer. I have of course enabled the file sharing and reviewed all the configuration of Blue-tooth, but nothing to do: openSUSE refuses to accept and download the picture from the smart-phone. On the contrary, I can send blue-tooth files from openSUSE to the smart-phone, despite it doesn't happens always, in fact sometimes I get this error from /var/log/warn: 2013-09-29T12:45:51.687358-03:00 linux-turion64 obex-client[2345]: Connection refused (111) 2013-09-29T12:46:49.535361-03:00 linux-turion64 obex-client[2345]: last message repeated 4 times 2013-09-29T12:46:49.535062-03:00 linux-turion64 obex-client[2345]: Too many levels of symbolic links (40) Then I wanted to test a dumb thing: I have an Ubuntu 10.4 virtual-machine running on this openSUSE 12.3 then I decided to enable Blue-tooth in there and I configured it to share files with the Lumia 710 strange to see that now everything works perfectly! (both sides: sending/receiving) Then where is the problem now? kernel? desktop? policy rules/permissions? broken rpm packages?
