How to connect Motorola V3X to ubuntu 7.04 with USB port
I am a big fan of motorola and Nokia, here is a simple how to to get your motorola connected through Ubuntu.
In this tutorial we will learn how connect your Motorola V3X to ubuntu 7.04 trough usb
First of all, we will download the moto4lin utility from the repositories.
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install moto4lin
Once installed, we need to change the configuration file of moto4lin.
cd $HOME/.qt
gedit moto4linrc
We change the old values to this ones. The most important values are, the device, product and vendor values. Those values are for the motorola V3X. Other motorola have different values.
You can activate the auto connect option too.
[device]
cfgACMdevice=/dev/ttyACM0
cfgATproduct=3002
cfgATvendor=22b8
cfgAutoConnect=1
cfgDetachDriver=0
cfgP2Kproduct=3001
cfgP2Kvendor=22b8
[filemanager]
cfgAutoExpandDirTree=0
cfgAutoUpdateFileList=1
cfgGoLastFolder=0
cfgLoadList=0
Now we are going to make a little script in our home directory to load the module and launch moto4lin.
moto4lin you need access from root login to work, so we make a sudo launch.
cd $HOME
gedit motorola
This will be the script:
sudo modprobe cdc_acm
sudo moto4lin
now we only need to allow execution for the script with chmod and we have our script.
chmod 700 motorola
./motorola
If all has gone right we will be able to connect our Motorola V3X by USB.
