[gnome-bluetooth] Ubuntu 5.04 gnome-obex-server not working

[Pedro Carrico]

Hi Bastien!
Hcid an sdpd are running properly,after I do a "/etc/init./bluez-utils 
start" my /var/log/messages shows up this:
Oct 21 11:50:36 matrix usb.agent[17476]:      hci_usb: already loaded
Oct 21 11:51:07 matrix hcid[17610]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
Oct 21 11:51:07 matrix sdpd[17613]: Bluetooth SDP daemon
Oct 21 11:51:07 matrix hcid[17610]: HCI dev 0 up
Oct 21 11:51:07 matrix hcid[17610]: Starting security manager 0
But something left me wondering...when I do a "ps aux | grep hcid" it shows:
root     17610  0.0  0.0   6128   852 ?        Ss   11:51   0:00 hcid: 
processing events
Is this "processing events" normal?
A reboot is not an option...I've got a server working on this machine 
that cannot be stopped...
Any other options?Sugestions?
Thanks for your patiente
