[Bug 570692] Re: Ubuntu 10.04 Can't open RFCOMM device: Permission denied

[Michael Mulqueen]

I can confirm that I also have this problem. Bluetooth otherwise works
fine (well, as far as I can tell, all I really use is OBEX). I'm using a
full up-to-date version of 10.04.

I think it's a Broadcom chip connected via USB (it's inside the netbook,
a Thinkpad Ideapad S12). sudo seems to provide some relief to the
problem but it's still broken.

I'm trying to connect to a phone (a Symbian-based Nokia running the
PyS60 console).
