Hello,

I'm testing Xubuntu 12.04 and it's looking good. However, there's one thing that I can't do, that is, browsing my Nokia E72 with bluetooth.

Pairing is OK, but I think Thunar does not support bluetooth browsing. So I installed Nautilus and gnome-bluetooth, but no luck. Even if I try to open directly obex://[my phone's MAC] under Nautilus. Something does happen, as I see a phone icon on the desktop, but I end up with an error message (see below).

It's weird, because another XFCE distro I'm also testing (namely, Linux Mint) manages to browse my phone with bluetooth (but only in Nautilus).

Thanks for any advice - Daniel
