Use synaptics to (un)install programs - it's called "Install software" in the menu and right there on the left hand side of the menu.
Could you be a bit more specific about your bluetooth problem? I don't really get it....

In Synaptic click the status tab and select installed packages. Then you can pick what you want to uninstall. :roll:

As long as it is a .deb package you find it in synaptics. If you have used a .run file you probably find an uninstaller in the program folder - if not just delete the folder. Could leave some config files as left overs, but wiht the size of todays hard disks... (and they don't interfere with anything)
