From Mobile Manager
Contents |
Latest release
You can download the latest release of Mobile Manager from the files area of the project SourceForge site. The releases are in source code form only, we are currently not providing any precompiled packages.
Retrieve from Subversion
To access the source code in its current stage of development, you can check out a copy of the Subversion repository:
svn co https://mobile-manager.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mobile-manager/trunk mobile-manager
The usual caveats apply about the potential instability of code in pre-release stage.
Compile the code
If you downloaded the release package, untar it and issue the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --with-init-scripts=debian (or redhat or opensuse) make make install
If working directly with a Subversion checkout, do the following:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --with-init-scripts=debian (or redhat or opensuse) make make install
Init scripts for Debian, Red Hat and openSUSE are provided. If you are in a different platform, try the scripts that you deem most appropriate; if this fails you will have to modify the scripts according to your local needs. Get in touch with us if you need help.

Run Mobile Manager
Mobile Manager is a D-Bus daemon. To get it running simply write:
/etc/init.d/dbus reload /etc/init.d/udev reload /etc/init.d/mobile-manager restart
The daemon starts automatically on reboot thanks to a script installed during the compilation phase.
Try Mobile Manager
A testing tool called mmdt (Mobile Manager Diagnostics Tool) is provided. To run it, simply write:

The Mobile Manager daemon must be activated before running mmdt.
