- SMS_client FAQ 2.0.7j
- =====================
- [Q]. When I try 'make', it complains bitterly, Why?
- [A]. Use GNU Make.
- [Q]. I've built sms_client but when I run it it just seems to hang,
- what's going on?
- [A]. This is an extremely common problem related to libmodem-1.0.0
- When it tries to generate a lockfile it doesn't check that the
- directory into which it is trying to create the file exists.
- The fix is simple, find out what directory your system uses for
- lockfiles, this could be /var/lock under Debian Linux, edit the
- dial/modems.h.in file to reflect this, recompile libmodem, using
- 'make clean ; make' run 'ldconfig' to update the shared library
- cache and finally rebuild sms_client 'make clean ; make'
- [Q]. I Have a PageOne Minicall pager, how do I find out my
- Pager ID?
- [A]. The number on the reverse of the pager is dialed to leave a
- message with an operator. Your Pager ID is the last 6 digits
- of this number.
- [Q]. Do I need any special hardware to send a messages to a mobile
- phone, must I connect my mobile to the computer somehow?
- [A]. No. SMS Client uses your modem to dial into a messages centre
- run by your provider, this relays the message to the phone or pager.
- [Q]. I've noticed that there's code in the 'src' directory that
- doesn't get built when I 'make' why is that?
- [A]. The additional code is still in development. Feel free to
- take a look and send me any feedback you may have.
- [Q]. I have tried to send myself several messages but only one
- arrives, why?
- [A]. SMS Client Filters out any duplicate names if found. If you really
- want to send yourself several messages enter several versions of
- your name in the address book and specify these on the command
- line.
- [Q]. I feel an overwhelming urge to pay for this software what
- should I do?
- [A]. You're out of luck, it's free. I do however appreciate picture
- postcards, they should be sent to:
- Angelo Masci c/o
- Zuken-Redac
- 1500 Aztec West
- Almondsbury
- Bristol
- United Kingdom
- [Q]. I'd like to give it a quick test, is there a test number I can try?
- [A]. If your from the UK Feel free to send your email address to my pager
- on MINICALL:252044 I'll try to mail you a reply back a soon as I get a
- chance. Remeber that this is a UK service and will cost you a lot if your
- dialing from outside the UK.
