There is an option on your phone, depending on the s/w and version,
usually under settings  connectivity, which chooses whether the
phone connects as a modem or as a USB storage media. Check your user
manual for details.

Once the correct setting is chosen, the phone would connect as
/dev/ttyUSBX or similar device automatically. 

Next, use a ppp dialup utility (KPPP, gnome-ppp, wvdial, etc) to set
up a ppp connection. There would be plenty of HOWTOs, which may be a
bit network and phone / model specific on the web.

You will have to change the settings from phone's menu again if you
want to access the phone's memory.

IIRC, gnokii too has capabalities to setup a ppp connection, but I
have not  used it. .

Greetings,

this is an invitation to read and spread the word (**) about a new
Linux/FOSS documentation project by Tony Baechler: free, CC-licensed
audio tutorials about FOSS specifically aimed at blind computer
users. My full interview with Tony is at
http://stop.zona-m.net/node/150

(also because following his guidelines would give great audio
tutorials very useful to **all** FOSS users, not just those with
vision problems)

[ilugd] computer bits clear out - p3s, monitor, misc

2010-05-08 Thread PJ
Free old pc stuff in Saket/Malviya Nagar area, South Delhi (free as in beer).

Ideally to a GNUed home, but you have the freedom to choose what to do with it
;-) because free as in freedom is also good :

1. 4  p3 boxes in various states. One just needs a drive to work, the rest,
dunno. They have stuff like network, sound, smps etc. You can probably build a
couple of router boxes/NAS whatever out of them.

2. Also a crt 15 monitor

3. misc stuff - an RMS book, a book about Turing, old keyboard/mouse etc

Mail me at p3.to.pee...@spamgourmet.com with your details and we'll figure out
how you pick them up.

Conditions:

You'll need to know how to use a screwdriver on cases and pci cards as you do
the PCI-card Shuffle TM.

You'll have to pick all that crap up - surely you'd need a car for that. Last
time I did a clear out like this, I saw with my own naked, steaming eyes, some
brave soul take couple of boxes and a monitor on his bike and wobble off with a
happy grin. He survived ;-). But, man, you are certifiably insane if you try
lugging all this lot now on a bike.

regards
PJ

Try connecting the phone in PC Suite mode. I got a N78, it works like a
cake on Ubuntu Jaunty.
