I found a way to remotely control my presentations on my PowerBook (using 10.2.6) via my P800 Smartphone, mostly like Salling Clicker does with the SE T68i and T610. I really missed this possibilty in my new P800, like many other users. So I figured out the basic steps to solve the problem:
How to setup a remote controlled MAC
Here are the required packages:
sudo sh -c "nohup /System/Library/SyncServices/SymbianConduit.bundle/
Contents/Resources/mRouter -a 00:01:d0:15:d0:7e -t 30 -p800 >
/tmp/mrouter.log 2>&1 &"
Replace 00:01:d0:15:d0:7e with the MAC address from your phone. Check if your command is successful with following command:
ifconfig ppp0
If you have output like this:
ppp0: flags=8050<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
or
ifconfig: interface ppp0 does not exist
then you don't have a successful connection! If this happens, then switch your SE P800 off and on, and try again. Sometimes it helps if you download a file, e.g. ring tone etc. via Bluetooth File Exchange to your phone, and then try once again the mRouter command. A successful connection should have a output like this:
ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 169.254.1.68 --> 169.254.1.5 netmask 0xffff0000
This output means that you have established an IP connection via the PPP protocol. Your Mac has the IP address 169.254.1.68 and your P800 has 169.254.1.5. You can now test the connection by pinging your P800 from your Mac like this:
% ping 169.254.1.5
PING 169.254.1.5 (169.254.1.5): 56 data bytes
