I have an MSI-6967 and I ave never had a problem with it. Can't seem to
find them any more in komplett, but I think that most USB ones are fine
with linux now.
What mobile do you have?
I used the following with mine (SE T68i, SE T630):
Multisync, to sync contacts and calendars:

gnome-bluetooth and gnome-phonemanager:

(If you are using fedora core nrpms (nrpms.net) is a good source for
these)
and bluemote, which is frankly bloody useless (well, not totally), but
fun nonetheless:
