Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

Hi,

I can't pair my Sony BD Remote for the PS3 because the program doesn't have a setting to bypass the PIN and just trust the device. Bluez has this but it isn't used by default with gnome. Is there a way to trust a device with gnome-blutooth?

Thanks.

No, I returned my remote once I realized it has no buttons to change the
volume :(
