actually once we add the "Setup new device" menu entry to that menu then
it should become more clearer. This then will call the wizard.

The missing gnome-vfs-obexftp issue is because it is part of universe
and not Gutsy core. That is up to the Ubuntu guys to figure out. I think
the main problem might be that we don't have a Debian package for it. So
time for someone to maintain a gnome-vfs-obexftp Debian package and so
it will find its way into Ubuntu core.

Regards

Marcel
