Subject: [gentoo-user] Bluetooth and KDE Connect

1 Evening all,
2
3 I've plugged in a new USB Bluetooth adapter, following the instructions in the
4 wiki: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bluetooth . The idea is to connect to my
5 Android phone, but I'm only getting part way.
6
7 After installing bluez and broadcom-bt-firmware, then booting with the new
8 kernel, Bluetooth discovery and pairing work fine, but KDE Connect on each
9 device can't see the other: they both report "No Devices".
10
11 That nice Mr Google doesn't help, nor do the fine manuals and KDE web pages.
12 Has anyone succeeded with this?
