It doesn't look like a modem. What do you have connected to your PC? Next step is to use minicom or wvdial and connect to /dev/ttyACM0. In minicom issue an AT command. It should reply with an AT.

And without an SMSc you cannot send/receive SMS. As Isaac suggested, with your modem connected to your server, after rebooting, do: If you don't get anything, your mobile is not a modem, and you cannot use it. To send/receive SMS you will have to either get an SMSc connection or get a GPRS modem.

Simply put the mobile is not a modem. Does the mobile feature a USB or serial port?

I was wondering is it possible to use a Sony Ericsson W 580i phone as a modem for sending sms? I havent used a Sony Ericsson but rather a Nokia. However you can setup the modem group and smsc group as shown in the user guide. To be sure the phone can be used, do this: Connect the phone to the computer and as root do this r...@your-computer#dmesg|grep -i "Sony" r...@your-computer#tail -n30 /var/log/messages|grep -i "Sony" You must see a link to the device file /dev/ttyACM0 or something similar which shows connection to your phone. Configure kannel accordingly to use the device file that points to your phone. Read the user manual on configuring group=modems group=smsc for using phones as virtual smsc. Regards Rajeev.
