problem with sending file via bluetooth


hi
I have a problem when trying to send file via bluetooth from my asus k45 vm laptop (atheros bluetooth adapter) to my old nokia 6120 classic mobile. blueman and bluedevil can detect and pair with my phone but none of them can not send file to it.
is there any suggestion?

My system is a little wonky right now but I remember getting it to work once by just fiddling with some kde system tray/widget. Transfer speeds were way slow though so if your thinking of transfering video, etc. then you might as well figure out how to plug in gigabit ethernet to your phone. :P
