Disable obexftp?


I'm using Kubuntu 10.10 and since I don't need Bluetooth I've disable startup for BlueDevil. Can I also disable startup for obexftp, or is it require by other processes?

You can turn it off, obexFTP is used only by Bluez.

If you don't need it you could try and deinstall it.

obexftp isn't uninstallable from KPackageKit or apt-get remove. It's not a biggie for me to leave it as long as it doesn't use resources.
