You can try Venetia. What is Venetia Venetia is a PyGtk program that use FSO framework to make call. It was written because I would like to make call with my deb...@fr but I don't want to keep open an application. It is still incomplete. I am counting to release in a few days another package (Xfce4VenetiaPlugin) that permit to have an applet showing the signal level and keeping the dialer activated but insivible. What is not Venetia It don't want to be a finger friendly application (Sorry, but I you can try to use it with your fingers) It don't want to manage SMS. I would prefer to write another application (may be with another XFCE applet) to receive and send sms (little applications that do well their job) It don't want to enter on OM200X.X (You have already a great application, why to use Venetia?) It is only an interface. If your sim is not running with Zhone, don't hope it can run with Venetia. Them are only an interface to FSO Frameworkd. What is not yet complete / Known problems: 1) It don't start if the sim is not present. It is a very stupid issue, I will fix as soon as possible 2) It take too much time to start up. It is fault of synchronous call. I have to make it asynchronous. 3) It not show the history. Ehmm... I have still to implement, but first I want to finish other things 4) ....
