I get the following message on a Centos 5 system (really a Trixbox 2.4 
build on Centos 5):

Jan 14 00:12:28 sip2 kernel: hub 1-0:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 
1 disabled


What does this mean?

This message occurs about 30 times/sec for about 45 sec.  Then my 
Bluetooth token starts up.

a hciconfig -a gets:

CSR is considered good...

Then I try and pair my Treo 650.

I picked up the following to make the token discoverable:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.bluez 
/org/bluez/hci0 org.bluez.Adapter.SetMode string:discoverable

ouch!

Now then, hcitool scan mostly fails.  But hcitool info 00:07:E0:24:5A:94

gets:

After a bit of work, I can get the phone to prompt me for the PIN.  But 
hcitool con comes up empty.  I try hcitool cc 00:07:E0:24:5A:94  and the 
phone shows connecting, but hcitool con shows an empty list.

Of course when I get into Asterisk's CLI and try a mobile show device, 
it lists the Treo (I did put a section for it in the mobile.conf file) 
put shows NO for Available.

Can anyone help me get direction on getting my phone paired with my system?
