hi
I have just recived my bluetooth dongle and wanted to play around with
it combinded with my phone (S/E T610).
the dongle seems to work because I can find my phome through
gnome-bluetooth-admin and I can drag-drop files on the icon in
bluetooth:/// in nautilus.
So now I want to use phonemgr. 
I downloaded the source, but it could not compile om my mandrake 10
(actually cooker). 
ERROR:
......................................................
make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/kim/phonemgr-0.2.1'

........................................................

I then found a redhat fedora core1 package and installed it on my
mandrake. It looks like it works. The applet shows up in the panel and
in prefs I can find my phone. After pressing the apply and close buttons
in the prefs, it still says that it is unable to connect to my phone. 
I can see in the diplay on the mobile phone that it is connected, and I
can't shut down the bluez module because it says that it's busy.
This must mean that it actually is connected but just dont work
correctly..


Any idea for whats wrong and how to fix it?

is there packages of this software for mandrake somwhere?
