Connecting a NOKIA 6310i mobile phone via serial DLR-3P cable and the serial connector of the laptop (for Bluetooth see part II): After installation of the gnokii package(s) the the configuration file says:
model = 6510 connection = dlr3p
Then gnokii reports:
$ gnokii --identify GNOKII Version 0.6.28 IMEI : XXXX Manufacturer : Nokia Modell : 6310i Product name : NPL-1 Revision : V 5.22
So I got a little bit further with my little toy.
Bluetooth works. The packages gnome-bluetooth and bluez are installed and the kernel module bluetooth is loaded. hciconfig reports this:
# hciconfig hci0: Type: USB BD Address: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX ACL MTU: 310:10 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN RX bytes:11354 acl:105 sco:0 events:286 errors:0 TX bytes:4012 acl:99 sco:0 commands:66 errors:0
I tried to connect to a SAMSUNG and a NOKIA mobile phone. After enabling visibility of the phone the bluetooth-applet (gnome-bluetooth) showed the device. However I got an error saying “The name org.openobex was not provided by any .service files” when trying to access the mobile device. This was solved by installing obexd-server obex-data-server. Then I was able to access the phone contents via Bluetooth.
I recently tried to debug the mopac7 build error. I installed the qemu(-qemu-kvm) emulator. Loading of the kvm_intel module failed with “kvm: disabled by bios”. But this was easy to solve by enabling the Intel virtualization technology in the BIOS: push and hold the ESC key during startup until the laptop tells you to press the F1 key. Then enable the related BIOS option and done.
I recently got a Toshiba Tecra A10-1HU laptop. This is a series describing my experiences with this hardware using Debian Sid.
This one comes without any operating system. So I got a recent testing-netinstall CD-image and ran the installer procedure (in expert mode). Everything went fine and I ended with a shiny Squeeze and kernel 2.6.30. Because I use Sid as my usual system, my first action was a dist-upgrade to Sid.

The integrated graphics chipset, an Intel GMA 4500M HD, works with the xserver-xorg-video-intel package and the default X.org configuration. No custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf is necessary.
The (IMHO non-reflecting?) display runs at 1280×800 at 60 Hz.
The integrated Intel 82567LM Gigabit Network device works with the e1000e kernel module. No customization was necessary.
The notebook comes with the so called Toshiba Dual Pointing Device a touchpad (+2 buttons) and a trackpoint (+2 buttons). Both worked without customization.
apmd and acpid handle this. No problems yet. Suspend/Resume works. I did not yet test (and I’m not sure if I should) hibernate and uswsusp.
The webcam is a CNA7157 model or at least detected as such. The video4linux modules handle it and the cheese application produces pictures.
It works. Module and package information will follow as soon as I figure them out.
The notebook comes with an Intel WiFi Link 5100 device. It does not work out-of-the-box. Following this article, I’ve installed the firmware-iwlwifi package and loaded the iwlagn module.
For the sound device to work the snd_hda_intel module is necessary. Further the following lines must be added to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
# not sure about the first line, start adding the second only options snd-cmipci mpu_port=0x330 fm_port=0x388 options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=toshiba position_fix=1
After installing the sensors-applet I got two identical temperature displays. I’m not sure what they show. Anybody an idea how to examine this?
The notebook comes with an internal modem device:
00:03.0 Communication controller [0780]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset MEI Controller [8086:2a44] (rev 07)
From what I read I need hsfmodem or the sl-modem packages. “Unfortunately” the latest version is not available for amd64 from the archive, although it seems to have been built.
I did not yet test
