On a previous build, I did get the GSM to register completely with the GUI (sometimes, like every 2 or 3 boots), but not today--I had to use the gsmd to turn on the power and register.
I was trying to see if I could get GPRS working. Using the scripts on the wiki for manual GPRS, it said it gave me a successful connection--valid IP address on a PPP interface--but I couldn't get anywhere, even after setting it to be the default route and adding an opendns server to /etc/resolv.conf. I couldn't ping the other end of the ppp connection. Has anyone gotten GPRS to work? Almost seems like there's some firewall in the way, but I don't see iptables... Another call-related issue I'm seeing: I've copied an addressbook.db over from Evolution on my desktop, and while the contact manager loads it up fine, the Dialer no longer launches--it appears to not like some of the entries, or something about this file... move the old (empty) one back, kill the contact manager daemon, and the dialer works again... but no addresses... I, too, have the dialer crash whenever I try to answer a call through the GUI... -- John Locke "Open Source Solutions for Small Business Problems" published by Charles River Media, June 2004 http://www.freelock.com
