GSM Fail…

GSM Fail…

Hi,

okay… I have a simple task… dial some numbers, drop some SMS. Right now I’m using a whacky mix of shell and chat script to do it but it is not as nice and reliable as it should be. So I was trying ofono and fso to use my serial device to do some calls for me… Or at least I tried to. FSO was relatively easy to install on Debian, having a nice readme, picking a GSM driver… well and then… how do I specify the config value… looking at the source, finding stuff… taking an old example from Charlie… nothing… hmm.. Okay, on to ofono…

So ofono is written to make the life of designers more easy, it must be so easy that there is no documentation required… after finding some examples in the test directory of the code… I send one MSG to enable the Power of my modem and hope the VoiceCallManager comes up… instead I do see a segfault in the ofonod… *sigh*

I think I will write a custom application to send and parse some simple AT commands for now… how frustrating.
