Nokia 6630 / Podcasts / Linux

Technical
2006-06-25

I’ve just spent a frustrating few hours trying to get my new Nokia 6630 to talk to my Linux PC properly, and have given up after OpenOBEX kept segfaulting. I did manage to get the USB connection between the two working, but this seems to do little without the OBEX support.

On the upside, I did get GoldenPod up-and-running so that podcasts will be automatically downloaded for me. This should make it easier to copy them across to my mobile when I have the opportunity. I shall buy a larger MMC card for the mobile if I find I use this often; 64MB almost certainly won’t be enough.
