Thanks Kevin, I'm at the link. Here's what happens with the Motorola:

On device history the Motorola shows both localhost-0 and the Nokia
2600c-2b so it 'sees' the computer because in Applications > Tools >

the "friendly name" of localhost-0. Scanning the Motorola with "hcitool
scan" nets this:

[chris@localhost ~]$ hcitool scan
Scanning ...
(nothing)

Scanning the Nokia gives this:

[chris@localhost ~]$ hcitool scan
Scanning ...
	00:21:FE:89:34:0A	Nokia 2600c-2b

Running sdptool browse 00:21:FE:89:34:0A gives me this:
[chris@localhost ~]$ sdptool browse 00:21:FE:89:34:0A

Using the link you provided I can get the Nokia to work just fine now
but still no joy at all with the Motorola. It's like it doesn't even
exist as far as connecting via bluetooth is concerned. Any other
suggestions?

Thanks very much for the link, much appreciated.

Chris
