Yes, it is exactly "bnep failed" and this is the only occurence of this
string in the code ;)

Yes. The builtin dongle on my new (old ;) machine did not work, so I
started to investigate. I tried various external dongles, some worked,
others didn't. All with the same setup (I'm not 100% sure if I did pair
the phone in advance or if I waited for the bnep-connect to request
pairing, but I am pretty sure that I did it the same with all dongles).
Finally I exchanged the internal module (it's an HP machine, the
modules all have the same form factor, and I found another one which
did work).

I'll check if I still have a dongle that fails, and if so, I'll debug
it.
I was just not sure if there was hardware / firmware involved, so
wanted to check that first ;)

Will do so, too, if I can make it fail again.
Thanks,
