reverse tethering with bluetooth

Hi,
I'd like to use the ethernet/internet connection of my laptop and connect my HTC Desire X via bluetooth to let them share it. People call this reverse tethering.
I found several outdated hints, that no longer work for me.
I tried blueman (uses bluez4) and got my smartphone connected to my laptop via Bluetooth. But some howtos or tools needed bluez5, so that creates a conflict.

Can you tell me, how I can share the internet connection via Bluetooth then?
