[Kwintv] [kde-bluetooth] Fedora

[Velpi]

picked up an old discussion here...

Fedora core 1 KDE links are default in /usr/share/applnk-redhat/
that's the solution for this 'link-problem' (nice going there RH...)
BUT what is worse:
a standard tarball compile and install also doesn't integrate in the KDE 
control panel (=no bluetooth option), probably for a similar reason. The 
entry for the context menu in konqueror ("Send with Bluetooth...") is 
there though. Also it is not possible to start the khciconfig from the 
context menu of kbluetoothd. Starting khciconfig manually as root from 
console is not a problem.

Another problem I encountered: I don't get a popup 'pin' window whatever 
I do when pairing. And if I pair the devices with editing my pin 
manually, the device does not show up in sdp:/ afterwards. If I do a 
hctool device scan or inquiry, the device doesn't show up either, so I 
guess this is not a kde-bluetooth problem...
and now *magic*: if I send something to my PC, the kobexclient pops up 
and receives the item. cool, though very strange if you ask me...
since the device doesn't list anywhere, it is impossible for me to send 
something to it the normal way... (I'll try MAC addresses in a while)

any suggestions?

  To globally ad them to the fedora menu (KDE. Gnome and other WMs) you'll
need to configure the shortcuts in /usr/share/applnk/ to "fedora style".
Some of them are set to "Hidden=true", you can change that. To avoid the
apps being shown in Gnome you can add "OnlyShowIn=KDE"

# cat /usr/share/applnk/Utilities/kbtobexclient.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=kbtobexclient
Exec=kbtobexclient %u
Icon=kdebluetooth
Type=Application
Comment=An OBEX Object Push client for the KdeBluetooth Framework
MimeType=bluetooth/obex-object-push-profile
OnlyShowIn=KDE

Most of the apps are hidden, for they are called via an sdp-url, so it's
no use to have them in the menu.
