Bug Description
Ubuntu 8.04
I use the python bluetooth console that comes with the py60 distribution in order to connect to my computer.
In order to do so, I create a serial port on my computer using /etc/bluetooth/
rfcomm0 {
# Automatically bind the device at startup
bind no;
# Bluetooth address of the device
device 00:19:79:86:C3:00;
# RFCOMM channel for the connection
channel 2;
# Description of the connection
comment "Daniel";
}
then I start listening on this port:
sudo rfcomm listen rfcomm0 2
then in another console window I annouce my serial service
sudo sdptool add --channel=2 SP
but my phone keeps saying: no serial port detected.
this used to work before I upgraded to the latest ubuntu 8.04 version.
I tried using a different bluetooth card and a different computer but it did not help.

I confirm this bug, but it is a dup of #227429.
