2 QUICK-START GUIDE TO RLP DATA CALLS USING GNOKII
4 (1) Compile and install gnokii as per instructions in the INSTALL file.
9 tar xvfz /tmp/gnokii-0.3.3pre10.tar.gz
11 ./configure --enable-nls --with-x
16 (2) Create /etc/gnokiirc or ~/.gnokiirc
18 cp Docs/sample/gnokiirc /etc/gnokiirc
22 cp Docs/sample/gnokiirc ~/.gnokiirc
24 Edit to suit; in my case:
31 bindir = /usr/local/sbin/
33 (3) Connect your phone to your PC and then run gnokiid:
37 If successful, you should see a message saying that mgnokiidev has been
38 run to create /dev/gnokii. If you're using a 5110/6110 series phone
39 you should hear a beep and see an "accessory connected" message on
40 the phone. If you're using a 3810 series phone you won't see anything
43 I run gnokiid as root; it will also work for another user who is
44 in group gnokii, as long as the serial port is accessible to that
45 user as well. It's not recommended that you run gnokiid as root
46 permanently however - it is better to put yourself in group gnokii
49 (4) Use /dev/gnokii as a modem:
52 --------------- /etc/ppp/peers/demon-gnokii ---------------------
54 modem crtscts defaultroute
55 connect 'chat -v ABORT BUSY ABORT ERROR ABORT "NO CARRIER" "" AT OK-AT-OK ATD02083389666 CONNECT'
60 ----------------------------------------------------------------
61 --------------- /etc/ppp/pap-secrets ---------------------------
62 XXXX.demon.co.uk demon-gnokii <yourpassword>
63 ----------------------------------------------------------------
65 Then "pppd call demon-gnokii" should connect
66 ('tail -f /var/log/messages' to see what is happening)
68 (5) If a call terminates you should get 'NO CARRIER' and gnokiid should
69 continue to work, but this is early code and you may find you have to
70 Ctrl-C and restart gnokiid (especially if the phone says the terminal
71 connection has been lost)
73 (6) As gnokiid is still under development, ensure your data call has
74 hung up by checking your phone display at the end of the call.
76 (7) See also example files in Docs/sample directory.
