Comment 30 for bug 839157

Yes.
I just checked it by booting the iso of Precise alpha 2: pairing works, whether initiated by Ubuntu or by my phone. But data transmissions do not work at all to any of my Bluetooth devices.

Meanwhile I "solved" it in my Natty 11.04 by downgrading to bluetoothd 4.84! My Bluetooth headset, my keyboard and Wiimotes work perfectly with 4.84. Unfortunately another bug 543163 causes regular delays while browsing remote folders.

Downgrading can be done by installing the debian package bluez_4.84-0ubuntu1_i386.deb e.g. downloadable from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/i386/bluez/ or one can unpack this .deb manually and replace only the executable /usr/sbin/bluetoothd by that of 4.84.
