My bluetooth seems to be activated in the system tray when I start the computer, can I disable this?.
I do not want my computer to be visible to other computers if you know what I mean.
Is it still safe even if the icon shows, Iam a little afraid someone might be able to hack the system this way? If itś still safe having it this way I dont really need to turn it of guess iám a litlle paranoid because i never use bluetooth
there is something called show bluetooth icon when you click on Preferences in the menu is that a way to disable it?
usually i used the quick keys on my keyboard but they don’t seems to work in opensuse
As far as I can remember when I had GNOME on my netbook (running KDE now) you could right click on the icon and go to preferences and disable it there.
When i search in Yast I do not find bluetooth listed. Show Hardware** lists it, but those menu items seem un-clickable.
My bluetooth used to only turn itself on every time it came out of standby. I would right-click the icon and turn it off. But recently it turns itself on randomly after this. What works for me now is:
service bluetooth stop
**(another nearly un-stoppable process that makes you feel like the entity in the Star Trek computer when Spock tells it to calculate PI to the last digit - “Nooooooo.”
Hi
Just some advice You have replied to an almost 5 year old thread related to openSUSE 11.3, best to check the date of the last post, then start a new thread with the issue and add a link back to the post for reference if needed.
