== Description ==
Binary package hint: bluez-gnome
using bluez-gnome version 1.8-0ubuntu1
ubuntu 8.10 intrepid
Tried to pair with a bluetooth headset. Started bluetooth-wizard, with
headset in pairing mode. Headset detected OK and shown on the "Device
search" display. Selected it and clicked "Forward". Under "Device
setup", got message "setting up new device", then "Connecting to X3
micro now".
Then, "Please enter the following PIN code: 0000" flashed up and
vanished, followed by "Pairing with X3 micro failed".
In fact, because it's a headset, there is no way to enter a pin code on
it, and I presume this is why the failure occurred. What is needed is
for the bluetooth-wizard to prompt for the headset's pin code and send
that to the headset, rather than the other way around as is set up at
present.
