there is no really tutorial. And in case or pairing problems it helps to
run "hcidump -X -V" to see what is going on. However with the D-Bus API
you have a CreateBonding command that will take care of everything and
at some point we will have a connection wizard. If I have enough free
time to write all this GUI stuff. I am not really a GUI programmer.
