Blueman-manager works but no graphic interface

If I click on "Settings ----> Bluetooth Manager" on KDE451 (kde's slack-current) nothing happens ...

If the command line I type Blueman-manager, I get:


Code:
$ blueman-manager

What am I doing wrong or what I do?

Slack updated Sat Nov 20 01:28:23 2010 UTC

I am trying to connect my PC to the mobile tele ....

Thanks

I can confirm this bug... Sometimes blueman opening, but there is not my dongle, and his paired devices... Reboot helped, but this is not advice)))

Thanks for the replies :-)
------------------------------------------
ps : Intuitively went to look in /var/log/packages, and found that I had not updated GTK+

I'm still using version

gtk+2-2.22.1-x86_64-1

while there is a Slack-current updates

gtk+2-2.22.1-x86_64-2

Day Thu Nov 18 00:05:34 2010 UTC

I'll update here, GTK +, and see what happens ...

It worked fine for me.

Did you use x64 and multilib?

I can't confirm that. Blueman-manager works fine here, after the latest udev update and bluez.

use convertpkg-compat32 to convert the new gtk+2-2.22.1 package to -compat32 and upgrade it.

Thank Tobyl,zhoun,rfernandez,anti_user, but decided to do an installation Slack13.1 and upgrade it to current-64-multilib, and now everything is resolved ...:-)

Thank you very much for your interest and please forgive my confusion ...
