Bug Description
Binary package hint: bluetooth
I can't recieve files sent from my phone while I'm in Linux. It used to work and it still works in windows.
The strange thing is that I can send files from the computer to the phone just fine.
The first time I connect a device it asks whether or not I will accept the connection. I select Allow. after that nothing happens.
I've tried setting the adapter to both discoverable and connectable.
I've tried in both KDE and Gnome.
Based on that, my theory is that the linux bluetooth denys the incomming connections.
BTW: Shouldn't it ask for a pin-code?

What software are you using to transfer files to PC? have you installed package gnome-bluetooth? have you started gnome-obex-server from Applications -> Accessories menu in GNOME?
