Toshiba Tecra M5-390 Bluetooth

[yogiman.uk]

Hi

I have a Tecra M5 and I am using Ubuntu 9.04, the blue tooth symbol shows up saying I have a bluetooth adapter and if I check for the hardware it throws back the MAC address of the device. However when I try to search for other Bluetooth devices like my Mobile Phone nothing is found. If I use the Mobile to do the search it doesn't find the Tecra.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks as always.

I anit no expert on Blue-Tooth but it does sound like you have the Discoverable setting of the Laptop turned off in the settings.
