I have a pair of these.  I can successfully pair it with my laptop with F15 under Gnome 3.

However, connecting them after pairing can be pretty fiddly and erratic; the bluetooth menu never shows the connection as "on", but they do show as connected in the "bluetooth settings" in the control center.  But sometimes audio doesn't get routed to them (they don't appear in the sound control panel, or they need to be manually enabled).

There definitely needs to be more attention paid to bluetooth headsets.

Oh!  But you may be suffering from the bluetooth service not being started.  You may need to "chkconfig bluetooth on" and reboot if "systemctl status bluetooth.service" shows bluetooth isn't running.

Hi Jeremy,
The service is definitely started. I can see the device on the list. The problem is when I try to pair it. 
I will give Gnome3 a shot. But I am a KDE user, so I have to make it work also on KDE :))

Comment 3 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 2011-06-02 18:35:29 UTC
I wouldn't have thought that the GUI would make all that much difference, esp since I didn't think that KDE had recently undergone a Gnome 3-level change.  But maybe there's some bad interaction with all the systemd stuff.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 12:30:07 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
