Send via bluetooth doesn't work
 
I want to upload the photos from n900 to my Fedora laptop - but for some reason, it doesn't show up as a destination when I choose Send via Bluetooth.
The phone & laptop are paired - so that's not a problem...

Is it some specific BT service that maemo expects the PC to have?

Update: got it to work

* installed Blueman
* made laptop "permanently visible"
* set up OBEX "server"

Hello, I was wondering if you can help me please? I'm also having problems sending files from N900 to my Fedora 14 laptop.

I have Blueman installed, and I've checked that it's visible, but I don't know about the OBEX server, could you please explain how to set it up?

Thanks.

Edit: Worked it out, thanks to the hint.

For anybody else who has these issues with Linux (and in my case Fedora 14), you have to right-click the blueman-applet in the notification area (near the clock) and go to "Local Services"; Then choose "Transfer", and under "File Receiving (Object Push)", check
"Accept files from trusted devices".
