Yap. Actually, I'm using debian...

Yes, I have tried that. Here is the syslog messages:

Apparently, pin_helper is not available...
Here is what the Debian maintainer added to the documentation:


PIN (or passkey) management
- ---------------------------
since bluez 3.0 the old pin_helper script has been replaced by
the dbus interface.  To add a default passkey for every outgoing
request (e.g. the old /etc/bluetooth/pin file) drop it into
/etc/bluetooth/passkeys/default. (e.g. echo "1234" >
/etc/bluetooth/passkeys/default )
To add a passkey for a specific outgoing connection replace default
with the device's address. ( /etc/default/passkeys/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
will contain passkey for aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff ).
After adding a passkey you should restart bluetooth with

/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart

and the new passkeys will be registered.


I have also tried that and it is not working... do you think it is a
Debian problem?

Cheers,
