Description Alexander230 2013-07-25 21:34:22 UTC

Description of problem:
I've upgraded from Fedora 18 to 19 and bluetooth icon disappeared from my taskbar. Also, there are no bluetooth-related shortcuts in my LXDE menu. Now I don't know how to connect my headphones to the laptop.

All bluetooth-related packages are probably installed:

user@A230N4 ~$ rpm -qa | grep bluez
bluez-cups-4.101-8.fc19.i686
bluez-libs-4.101-8.fc19.i686
bluez-alsa-4.101-8.fc19.i686
bluez-hcidump-2.5-2.fc19.i686
bluez-4.101-8.fc19.i686
bluez-gstreamer-4.101-8.fc19.i686
bluez-libs-devel-4.101-8.fc19.i686

user@A230N4 ~$ rpm -qa | grep bluetooth
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-3.0-10.fc19.i686
gnome-bluetooth-libs-3.8.1-1.fc19.i686
gnome-bluetooth-3.8.1-1.fc19.i686

AFAICS gnome-bluetooth no longer provides a trayicon but only works in GNOME Shell. Please ask the maintainer for clarification.

Or you might just want to use mate-bluetooth or blueman.

mate-bluetooth works fine for me. Thank you!

Comment 3 Christoph Wickert 2013-07-26 20:17:56 UTC

Good to know. Please note that mate-bluetooth pulls in a lot of dependencies, we are working to improve that. Feel free to watch bug 988912 and bug 988944 for updates.
