Re: Trying to get a Nokia N79 to work

Hello

Your advice was correct to appraoch the freebsd users group

The members advised me to try the various serial ports not the usb port ie 
not /dev/ugen4.2

but rather port = /dev/cuaU0 which I did sequentially till I got one to to 
work.

I thought I would give you the follow up on this incase you get asked again 
in the future.

Thank you again for your assistance

Regards

Godfrey
