 I am using a N72 myself and when I purchased it more than 2 years back, I
 searched a lot on the same issue.

 The conclusion of my search was:
 N72 and N70 are based on Symbian S60 2nd Edition Feature Pack 2 which is a
 slightly older OS. Other N-Series were based on S60 3rd edition or later
 which supported selecting the mode on connecting the phone with a PC using
 USB - the modes were Data Storage and PC Suite mode, if you selected the
 former the phone could work as a storage device and yeah GPRS worked too.
 But this was not the case with N72.

 I tried using other software mentioned earlier in the thread like
 wammu/gammu but couldn't get the phone to work, although it was being
 detected if you issue 'lsusb' command

 If you can figure out (I couldn't at that time, and then never tried) how
 to
 share net over bluetooth you may have a chance.

Will it support Nokia 5800 XpressMusic:
http://www.forum.nokia.com/Devices/Device_specifications/5800_XpressMusic/
?

Though software are there, like Wammu, but supported mobiles are a few:

It is always pain to get things worked on Linux, as there is hardly
any vendor / manufacturer who support Linux officially.

Re: [ilugd] Calling all Apache Solr/open-source search engine users in Delhi/NCR

2010-08-21 Thread Gora Mohanty
Hi,

  Thank you for all the responses. It seems that there is
some interest in the area. We can go ahead, and meet up,
probably along with a ILUG-Delhi meeting. For the people
who proposed meeting in Oct., we can have another one then.

  So, I would like to ask for responses to two questions
for the meeting:
* When? The coming weekend (27th/28th) should work, but I
  might be out of town. Will know by Tue. or so.
* Where? Choices are Delhi (probably JNU), or Gurgaon (a
  company there for whom we are doing some Solr work have
  volunteered their premises, but I would have to check on
  whether these are available on the weekend). As a plus
  point (for some), the office is right across the highway
  from the Howzzat micro-brewery.

Regards,
Gora

I think you need to install libopensync0 and opensync-plugin-file for
this. I had some trouble in installing libopensync0 on debian sid
because for some reason it was not in the repos. I am afraid I don't
remember how I managed to do it.

Depends on how you connect the phone to the PC. If you use a USB
cable, it is likely that the phone is connected as /dev/ttyUSBX or
similar. Use the dmesg command to find out immediately after
connecting the phone. 

Next, you can use a normal dialler, like wvdial /kppp to establish the
connection. 

You can also use a similar procedure bluetooth; but I am not clear on
the specifics.

Please remember that most phones have 3 options in their menu - to
connect to a pc - as a USB memory device; as a modem; as something
else (like the PC suite option on Nokia devices.

For connecting using bluetooth, you first pair your phone with the
PC, and then use the options in the PC to establish TCP/IP over
bluetooth. gnokii makes this task easier; but configuring gnokii is a
real pain.

wammu / gammu is for backing up addressbooks and SMS messages. Backing
up would be easy; but writing data to the phone is a pain - my Nokia
5130 XpressMusic is supported for reading most date, but writing is
supported only for normal address books. Thus one name - multiple
number type and group type addressess cannot be written, but can be
backed up.

It was there.

 and opensync-plugin-file

This was missing.

But now, SyncML over OBEX Client is missing.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 :-(

Now, trying:

http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1474031page=2

It is also possible to add the old package sources in synaptic to
install the packages, although I think it is not recommended
adding deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic main universe
works for me.

installing is now just installing opensync-plugin-syncml. dependencies
are added automatically.
