Do you know if the Bluetooth problems are resolved especially bluez-pin/

Feisty had btsco userspace tool but not the kernel module etc.
I've a Motorola HS805 and a Moto L6. Having a horrid time getting them
to work with Feisty. Has anyone else had better luck? Looks like these
worked in Dapper.

Upgraded to Gutsy from Feisty yesterday. Took a few ticks over 10 hrs
and thankfully my Internet connection and power held on.
Good Ones:
1. Bluetooth headset works out of the box now. Gnome BT manager is
umpteen times better than what it used to be.
2. Pidgin looks much better than GAIM and has out of the box Google Talk
support.
3. Nice themes and appearance controls.
4. Bluetooth protocol analyser.
5. Desktop Search.
6. Fonts are much better now.
Issues (very minor):
1. Only other issue was Thunderbird 1.5 to 2.0 did not migrate setting
and mail. Location changed from ~/.mozilla-thunderbird to
~/.thunderbird. Took a while to figure that out.
2. Virtualbox driver had to be recreated. Data intact.
3. Some desktop icon links were broken and had to be recreated.
4. Menu needs reorganisation if it were edited earlier. Broken links and
wrong grouping for a few entries.
Still need to see if kmobiletools supports Moto L6 on BT.
