Wikipedia Poster (and moto4lin on the pebl)


I found this really nice poster at FC-UNAM yesterday (sorry, mobile phone pic).


moto4lin (available for debian using apt-get install moto4lin) is a really nice program to connect motorola phones to linux boxes.
A couple of things that must be kept in mind:

  • To connect to your phone moto4lin must be run as root (sudo)
  • To configure moto4lin, it must be run as normal user
  • You need AT and P2K vendor and product numbers for your phone. You can get this numbers by clicking "refresh list" on the settings window whilst running the program in sudo mode. (Of course the phone must be plugged)
  • You might need to do one or more of the following (I own a motorola u6 pebl and I had to do both of them for the thing to work).
  1. change 'ACM Device' to /dev/ttyACM0
  2. The p2k product ID must be equal to the at product ID minus one.
  • For this two changes to take effect you must enter them in the settings window whilst in normal user mode. You might also need to switch the mode to p2k, I believe this one thing can be done whilst in root mode...
