Subject: 2.6.38 kernel breaks userspace bluetooth management tools

Hi;

According to http://www.bluez.org/the-management-interface/ bluetooth
management interface has changed in the 2.6.38 kernel and this ends up
breaking bluetooth management tools (the ones that get your bluetooth
mouse working) in both KDE & Gnome ( see
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680170 ).

Now I remember there was rule like never ever break userspace tools
unless there is a good reason, right?

FWIW I got bluez 4.89 installed.

Regards,
ismail
