Connecting Nokia 6020 with CA-42 cable to Fedora 7


Hi!
i am having problem with Nokia 6020 phone to connect with my fedora7. i am using a CA42 cable.

I have used the following commands..
#/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0×0421 product=0×0802
#wvdialconf create

But it failed to identify any modem.
Earlier i tried with DKU 5 cable. But found no luck there.

Please help me. i need to connect internet through my mobile phone (Nokia 6020).

Thanks in advance.

Before you attach the cable to the USB port, open a console and type (as root)
Code:
tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages
Once you've plugged in your cable, the output in console will tell you where it is configured (on my Slackware box it's /dev/ttyUSB0)

Once you have that, use gnokii or gammu to communicate with the phone
