[Bug 837196] Re: Cannot change bluetooth name

Hi Mathieu,

In my latest distro, Ubuntu 13.10, there is a field for setting the
Bluetooth "Friendly Name" in the blueman-adapters panel.  I think it
works, at least on the system I'm using now.  (However, this isn't a
fresh installation, and I may have performed some work-around last
year.)

But this was very problematic even last year.  Something like: you could
set the friendly name in one place, but somehow it didn't *take*, so
that other devices would still see it as "ubuntu0".

As always, it's immaterial to the user whose fault it is--and enough
glitches like this drive users to the competition.

Thanks for your time!
