I've discovered that I can't discover my bluetooth adapter from my mobile phone. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. It turns out a new required option has been added (discovto 0).

I'd upgraded from a previous version of ubuntu, and edited my /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf file so I didn't have the option . (When you upgrade you're given the option to keep or replace various config files).

options {
        autoinit yes;
        security auto;
        pairing multi;
        passkey "1234";
        pin_helper /usr/bin/bluez-pin;
}
device {
        name %h;
        class 0x3e0100;
        iscan enable; pscan enable;
        discovto 0;
        lm accept, master;
        lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park;
}
