It should be possible. I used to do it with my N73 ages ago which had no wifi. Unfortunately I have no knowledge of bluetooth on desktop linux since i used windows.
Why would you want to do that? BT is slow, in real life you rarely get more than 70k/s and it's a battery drain.

I'm running windows xp so im using ad-hoc method to use the wireless internet, but if you want to connect via BT there is Bzeek (google it) it will convert your internet wirelessly through your BT..but of course you will connect to it as a normal wifi..i know you wanna use your BT to connect but i hope you can get somehing out of what i said

Have you had a look at USB networking? You could probably adapt that to meet your needs.

There's an app called pc connectivity manager. It makes it possible to connect throught USB and bluetooth, BUT:
I never got the bluetooth connection working;
The USB connection breaks and never works while on power kernel.
I'd search for that here, and the package is on devel called maemo-pc-connectivity.

N900 -> connected through laptop's bluetooth -> internet access
instead of N900 -> wifi router -> internet access
Is it possible to do this? I've been trying to tell my N900 to connect through bluetooth with pc connectivity manager (and made it connect to "dummy network", it seems to have worked and tries to connect through bluetooth, but my laptop isnt setup), but I'm not sure what to do on my laptop (dhcp server? ??)?
Thanks!
