Hi I (and a lot of contributors to the Nokia forums) would like to use the Nokia PC Suite in Wine. The current status in the AppDB of Nokia PC Suite <http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1026> v7.x.x.x is "Garbage" because, although installation and all the other functions now (wine v1.2.2) work just fine, it is totally useless without its "Connect a Phone" function. I have written in AppDB:-

Using latest Ubuntu-10.10 wine the installation is all visible. No connectivity, but there IS kernel support. Still investigating - will report more later... The kernel connects to my Nokia 6300 by USB as /dev/ttyACM0 I have used this with with wvdial (and other apps) to use the 6300 as an Edge modem and also with kmobile-tools to sync contacts. Surely there is a way of linking /dev/ttyACM0 into wine as a raw USB or serial port? Anyone know how? Well? -- Mike Yates Cowley Middlesex England * *
