In the past months I tried (re)installing 4.66-[123] from squeeze many 
times with different kernels and I also tried a few bluez version from 
testing/unstable, with no success. The only purpose of all of these 
(re)installs was to be able to receive files from my phone, as I have no 
other use for Bluetooth. Here's an excerpt from the dpkg logs to show you 
what I tried:

Not shown are also various installs of gnome-bluetooth, just in case it was 
kdebluetooth to be broken, but that didn't help either.

The last entry shows when I had it and spent an evening rebuilding 
bluez-utils 3.36 and kdebluetooth from lenny on squeeze, then I could 
finally receive files from my phone again.
