Default How to Configure Mobile phone in Linux???


I tried various version of linux from
suse 10
suse 10.1
suse 10.2
FC 6
mandarke
mandriva
Ubuntu 5
ubuntu 6
Knoppix

But was unable to configure my cell phone in anyone.

Can anyone tell how to configure coz its preventing me frm browsing internet through linux and preventing me frm even starting linux coz mostly i use pc for internet.

Jst wanted to transfer some mp3 songs to memory card!
No intention of using net through my phone!

By the way, can I access Internet through my BSNL sim?

I am surprised you are not able to use bluetooth. Bluetooth Obex services work fine in linux

If I remember right, gnokii is a CLI tool. So, try accessing it from terminal. There's a frontend to it, like KGnokii or something.

Conn via bluetooth
U need a USB bluetooth dongle fr tht!(This is the wireless way)

Conn via Data Cable
U need a data cable tht conn the cell and p.c via the usb interface

Conn Via Mem Card Reader
u can even buy a mem card reader and directly transfer data between ur mem card and p.c using usb interface.

If you are using KDE, use the KBluetooth to find your device. Pair it and then add modem as a service (if available in your phone). This will load the service in your kbluetooth module and you'll be able to turn your phone into a bluetooth internet modem.
