 |

I went thru my home dirctory and couldn't find the configuration/settings file. And indeed, the settings are not saved. What am I missing?
| Code: | ~ $ emerge -pv blueman
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!

Blueman is an interface to the Bluetooth service. Changes related to Bluez made by Blueman are saved in /var/lib/bluetooth.

| So I have to run blueman as root? I want to save incoming files into my home, and this setting should be saved in my home? |

You have to activate the appropriate plugins in Blueman. There are options in Blueman for what you accept as incoming files and where to save them. I do not use Bluetooth for files transfert. I cannot go more in detail unless I do it myself.

This is exactly the problem, I set these options and click on Apply, but when I open the plugin again they are back to None. |

I have change the directory where to save the incoming files and check the option of sure sources and then apply. After close and open again the Blueman interface (even Exit Blueman and start it again) my changes are effective. It may be the USE flags settings of Bluez and Blueman and the groups your user is in that make your changes not validate. If it can help you, I give you my settings.

- - deprecated : Build deprecated plugins
- - doc : Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
