    Nokia E63 connection to Suse 11.2

    I have Nokia E63, have bluetooth files in inbox which I want to transfer and I want to connect it to my Suse 11.2 PC. I have plugged in with the usb cable. Digicam Photo Program is detecting the phone but it is not connecting to it. How to mount the device? The device is showing in device manager as a usb.

    Does it show as a USB device or a USB mass storage device (like a flash drive, for example)?

    You may consider using gnokii (gnokii.org - Home) to try to communicate with your device.

    What I do with Nokia 6120c is save the files to a known place in the phone's filesystem (or the memory card if you prefer) and connect it to the computer in data transfer mode. In this case the phone shows up as a flash drive and you can easily mount it as such without additional magic.

    For really stubborn phones, I've found that bitpim can get into just about anything. In some cases, you need to run it as root so it can set the USB mode to get full access to the phone.
