If you are using kde, then you need to install kbluetoothd and it's
dependencies.

File stuff looks to be pretty easy once it is setup. Pair your devices
and then (it looks like, I just have a headset, no phone) you can browse
in konq.


 If your using gnome, it's gnome-bluetooth-manager

If your using ubuntu, this is the how-to I followed.  It worked fairly
well.
