Can that even do pictures over SMS?

You can try "gammu" and/or "gnokii".  They are command line tools for 
older phones.

KDE connect doesn't require an account of any kind.  It uses your local 
network to connect and lets you read and send SMS, remote control, file 
share, etc.

Texts to cell phones

[ToddAndMargo via users]

Hi All,

Fedora 38

Is there a utility to send/receive texts to/from
cell phones including graphics?

I have been using Thunderbird, but the cell phone
companies mess with it and most do not go through.

I noticed that Windows 11 has an application for that.

Yes you are right. I could shrink the filesystem.
My problem starts, because gparted complains a warning, that it is
possible not able to boot.
therefore i cancel the operation and read a bit deeper.

  Inkscape likes to start maximized for me. Rather annoying since
I have a 27" 2560x1600 monitor, and while the app window takes the
whole screen, the "page" is slightly taller than my thumb.

When Thunderbird opens, it does so postage-stamp size, way up in 
upper left hand corner of window, so small I almost missed it at 
first. Right-clicking "maximize" restores it to full screen display.


I see this with apps like LibreOffice. I have to click on it several 
times until I hit it just right to expand the window. I don't have a 
solution, but if you click on it *just right* you can get the window 
resize pointer to come up, then resize the window, and future 
versions will be usable. 


You don't mention what GUI is installed.  Assuming that you are using 
the default Wayland and not X, per a recommendation from one of the 
Fedora people, I installed thunderbird-wayland package and then 
changed the app startup to use thunderbird-wayland instead of just 
thunderbird.  There is a very long pause before thunderbird comes up, 
and then it just works.  Mention was also made of this fix being 
merged at a later date.


I have no idea why thunderbird and not thunderbird-wayland is in the 
software app list.  You have to do the install from CLI because of 
this secondary foulup.


I apologize, I should have been more clear. In my case, I use Xfce. I am 
not using Wayland, I am using plain old X11:


[thomas.cameron@case Desktop]$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
x11

I have to use the NVidia drivers, so I've shied away from Wayland.

Using Gnome.  As suggested by a couple of folks, there is enough of a 
corner of the "postage stamp" that I can grab it and drag the window 
larger.  Having done so, and closing Thunderbird, it re-opens at the 
re-sized condition--EXCEPT that it doesn't re-open Maximized when it was 
closed while Maximized; that still requires the extra right click in the 
top border.  Good enough.


Just odd this surfaced with my first log in after F37-F38 upgrade.

Thanks, all.

Thanks to all who replied.  This sed command solution worked.  The only thing 
other lines which had a "{" also added a *.eps to them but I fixed those 
manually.  Not a problem because to change more than 50 lines and one or two 
need manual edits.  The tradeoff is fine.

Best regards,



Antonio
