Guillermo,

please read bluetooth chapter in the freebsd handbook

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-bluetooth.html

all your questions and more are answered there.

well, you did not load ng_ubt(4) driver. ugen(4) is a *generic* usb 
device driver. it will attach to *any* usb device if no other driver 
claims it.

i just copied /usr/share/examples/netgraph/bluetooth/rc.bluetooth 
script. this is a generic script that will work for most bluetooth users.

thanks,
