[Bluez-users] Desperate newbie

["Gary Martin" <gary_martin_au@yahoo.com.au>]

Hi all

I'm a Linux user trying to sync my mobile phone with
my computer in desperate need of help. I'm running
Debian testing/unstable on a Apple PowerBook G3. I
have researched as much as I can, but I can't get
bluetooth to work with Linux.

My phone (Sonyericsson T628) can pair with the
PowerBook, but it says that the only service available
is "object push" and I can send files to the
PowerBook.

Multisync cannot find the phone.

Everything works perfectly in Mac OS X without any
configuration

I'm beginning to suspect it is a hci_usb -- hciattach
problem. But I don't understand hciattach.

Below are some diagnostics/output. Hopefully someone
can help
