We have collected more information at <A href="http://wiki.gnokii.org/index.php/Cables">http://wiki.gnokii.org/index.php/Cables</A> I would add gnokii to NetworkManager and make it the HAL/freedesktop standard for network, modem and phone management.  </DIV> >And one more thing. If it is about automatic starting NetworkManager when the phone gets connected and it will make all other apps unusable (because port being in use) I don't think it is a good idea. If it will let other apps to connect anyway, that's fine. I agree. We would try the last option ( automatic starting without make all other apps unusable). >And it was one of my goals to allow various applications to connect to the phone simultanously through some abstract layer (remember phone utopia?). This can be HAL. Regards.</BODY></HTML>
