It knows there is a device there, it doesn't
necessarily know what it is or what to do with it.
What are you trying to do?

I have no idea what you're on about here, it doesn't
make sense.

You know bluetooth and USB are 2 completely different
things don't you? You can't connect to a USB device
using bluetooth. You can connect to a mobile phone
using bluetooth if you have a bluetooth phone with
bluetooth switched on, a bluetooth adapter in your PC,
a bluetooth service running (bluez) and a bluetooth
client software. Under gnome I just installed all of
the gnome bluetooth applications.
If you want to connect to your phone using USB then I
don't know I've never done it. If it gets auto mounted
then bingo, if not then I dunno, search google.
If you have a bluetooth adapter, make sure bluez and
gnome-bluetooth are installed and then play with
gnome-bluetooth applications.
I also installed all of the desktop independent
bluetooth and obex stuff. Obex is somew kind of
protocol used by bluetooth to send stuff I think.
For Phone <--> PC synchronisation have a look at
multisync.
This is about as much as I know about bluetooth under
Linux so I can't tell you a lot more.
