The issue appears in the bug trackers of both Ubuntu and Fedora and regards Ubuntu 18.04 and Fedora 27. I am 100% sure that in the past the impress remote was working via bluetooth on the same hardware (both computer and handset). It is unclear to me if the issue is with the bluetooth stack of recent linux distros (bluez? kernel?) or if something has changed in it and LibO is trying to still use it in some old way that is now wrong. The issue is now present using any LibO version from 5.4 to 6.1.

The handset errors out that it cannot connect with Libreoffice on the computer even if the bluetooth adapter on the handset and on the computer are correctly paired. This does not seem to be an issue in the Libreoffice or in the impress remote code: - I have tested also past LibO versions - The Impress remote codebase has not changed recently This used to work on the same hardware (headset and laptop) with ubuntu 16.04. Hence the issue seems to be in a regression in the ubuntu bluetooth stack. To replicate: 1) Install Libreoffice on Ubuntu bionic (either from the ubuntu repo or with the deb packages from the document fundation) 2) Assure that your computer has bluetooth 3) Install impress remote on an android handset (either from the play store of via fdroid) 4) Assure that "remote control" is enabled in impress Tools>Options>Impress>General 5) Pair the bluetooth adapters in the laptop and in the computer 6) Open a presentation on the laptop 7) Open the remote on the handset, got to the bluetooth pane see the computer there, touch it 8) See the impress remote erroring out Most likely you will also get a bluetooth error on dmesg RFCOMM server failed for LibreOffice Impress Remote: rfcomm_bind: Address already in use (98) Same issue was reported for fedora ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: bluez 5.48-0ubuntu3.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-36.39-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-36-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Wed Oct 17 16:57:29 2018 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-12-12 (1769 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) InterestingModules: rfcomm bnep btusb bluetooth MachineType: Notebook W740SU ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-4.15.0-36-generic root=/dev/mapper/zagar_ssd--vg-root ro quiet splash resume=/dev/zagar_ssd-vg/swap_1 acpi_backlight=vendor vt.handoff=1 SourcePackage: bluez UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to bionic on 2018-06-08 (131 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 10/02/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 4.6.5 dmi.board.asset.tag: Tag 12345 dmi.board.name: W740SU dmi.board.vendor: Notebook dmi.board.version: Not Applicable dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 9 dmi.chassis.vendor: Notebook dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr4.6.5:bd10/02/2013:svnNotebook:pnW740SU:pvrNotApplicable:rvnNotebook:rnW740SU:rvrNotApplicable:cvnNotebook:ct9:cvrN/A: dmi.product.family: Not Applicable dmi.product.name: W740SU dmi.product.version: Not Applicable dmi.sys.vendor: Notebook hciconfig: hci0: Type: Primary Bus: USB BD Address: 00:C2:C6:1A:28:71 ACL MTU: 310:10 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN RX bytes:245088 acl:15156 sco:0 events:1266 errors:0 TX bytes:15571 acl:402 sco:1 commands:131 errors:0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1798400/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
