Which phone? On Android it seems like you need to enable Bluetooth tethering in the menu. ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
Re: Bluetooth tethering with NM?
In fact, would you please create a diff of /etc/NetworkManager before and after pairing up with your phone? Hopefully on a fresh instance of /etc/NetworkManager?

Re: Bluetooth tethering with NM?
Hi Dan, thanks for your quick reply. I don't run GNOME and don't have it installed; I run MATE which is a fork of GNOME 2. They have abandoned mate-bluetooth-applet (which was their copy of the gnome-blueetoth-applet) switching to blueman. They have probably based mate-bluetooth-applet off a version of gnome-bluetooth-applet which didn't have that checkbox yet; I don't see it if I use the latest version provided by MATE (1.6, while the latest MATE is 1.8). What would the procedure be without gnome-bluetooth-applet? I assume this creates a file somewhere like /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections; could you post the file that you get?

The connection gets created when you pair the phone with the laptop, via the GNOME bluetooth applet. It looks somewhat like this: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2009/07/10/unwire-with-networkmanager/ When you finish pairing the phone, you'll get a checkbox that has options for using the phone either as a PAN device, or a DUN device, depending on what your phone supports. For PAN, all that's required is checking the box. For DUN, ModemManager gets started to inspect the phone, and then the Mobile Broadband Wizard appears to let you configure the APN and other details. After that, the phone should appear in the nm-applet menu. Can you try the GNOME Bluetooth applet process and see if that makes things work?
