I have attached the Nokia via a DLR3 Nokia cable (old school com port) - I can connect to it via screen /dev/ttyS1 and send Nokia AT commands to it (send and receive sms) - but when I try to use gemmu it fails.

I both tried AT, DLR3 and FBUSDLR3 in the config - but nothing is working

Please help me, my distro is Fedora Core 4, gammu is latest

What is the OS? How are you trying to use gammu? In what way does it fail?

DLR3 is right for n6120, and allows AT and FBUS commands.
The setting you want is FBUSDLR3.

How have you set up ~/.gammurc ? (The gammu configuration file?)
COMM port = dos-ism for serial port or RS232 interface.
Gammu Wiki Pages

I'm using Fedora Core 4, this is my gammurc file:

[gammu]
port = /dev/ttyS0
model = 6210
Connection = fbusdlr3
synchronizetime = yes
logfile = gammulog
logformat = textall
use_locking = yes
gammuloc = locfile
startinfo = no
gammucoding = utf8
rsslevel = teststable
usephonedb = yes



And this is the output I get from gammu --identify

INFO: there is later test Gammu (1.09.15 instead of 1.09.00) available !
No response in specified timeout. Probably phone not connected.


Funny thing is that I can send AT commands to the phone through screen /dev/ttyS0, but gammu fails.

You set the phone to fbusdlr3 and it times-out?!

Perhaps something is blocking the connection: firewall? SELinux?

Thing is - this error comes most often for bluetooth or similar connection and is due to the daemon not running. Have you looked in the gammu logfile for information?

Simon: Yes it times out My main concern is now the Data cable, it is a clone-DLR3 cable, så maybe it only supports AT commands :/

Well I just tried to install gammu on my windows machine, I attached a Nokia 6230 via a genuine Nokia DCU2 cable - it works like a charm.

Argh - why won't it work..

I have the nokia_dku2.h and nokia_dku2.c files, Makefile.in, configure, configure.in.

./configure fails with this message:
configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in ../../config ./../../config

pwd:
/downloads/gammu-1.09.00/other/driver/dku2/kernel_2.6

when I attach the USB cable (and phone) to the USB port dmesg gives me the following:

usb 1-1.2: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9
usb 1-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: Ignoring extra header, type -3, length 4
cdc_acm 1-1.2:1.1: ttyACM0: USB ACM device
usbcore: registered new driver cdc_acm
drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: v0.25:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters

how the h*ll do I compile the nokia driver - I have loadable modules in the kernel..

If it isn't from nokia then you need to check the wiring of the cable, certainly. One wire out of place and you won't be able to use it.

Configure cannot find an install script? Check you have the right tarball, and check the configure script to see what it is doing (try to find the install.sh script. Point the configure script to it.)

Possibly you don't need to - why don't you just change your gammu script to reflect the new connection?

Crappy cheap OEM cable

I have loads of install.sh scripts on my machine.. but none of them has anything to do with the Nokia DKU2 driver

I was able to connect via AT, both with the Nokia DKU2 cable (Nokia 6230) and the OEM Seriel cable (Nokia 6210) - so now I just use the AT commands..

Thanks for your help.
