Description of problem: When I click on the bluetooth logo in the systray, I was expecting the file browser to launch into the bluetooth:// navigator (like in F8). Instead I get a popup: Protocol no supported bluetooth and then I get a blank file browser window. Bluetooth pairing works fine (via KBluetooth-->Configuration). My device (a cellphone in this case) is properly paired with a bluetooth USB dongle on the host. Is it having trouble finding the bluetooth.protocol file? The kbluetooth RPM installs it into /usr/share/services; I also see a /usr/share/kde4/services directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebluetooth-1.0-0.41.beta8.fc9.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install kbluetooth 2. Restart desktop or launch /usr/share/autostart/kbluetooth.autostart.desktop 3. Click on bluetooth icon Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:

This is filed as http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162492. I wasn't sure if this was a kde issue or a packaging issue.
kdebluetooth doesn't seem to support the latest version of bluez. Problem has been reported upstream (long ago), but upstream seems to be dead. (More-or-less). I'm trying to free some time, to check if I can fix the problem myself. For now, I'm over booked :( Keeping this bug open for now. - Gilboa
*** Bug 444736 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
kdebluetooth-0.2-3.fc9 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 9. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kdebluetooth-0.2-3.fc9
As noted by comment 5, kdebluetooth4 is on its way. It's a necessary update, but unfortunately it currently contains only a subset of the old kdebluetooth's functionality, and one of the missing things is the bluetooth:/ protocol handler. So as of now, this is not something we can fix and it is expected that the bluetooth:/ protocol is not found, we hope that the functionality will reappear in future kdebluetooth4 releases -> CANTFIX.
