Anyone lucky to make phone calls in Switzerland ? [positive]

Perhaps it is a problem with the gsm-antenna? Are you sure you could power it 
up?

I had to put an extra line in /etc/matchbox/session

/etc/init.d/gsmd stop && /etc/init.d/start

causing the gsm-daemon to restart. Afterwards it worked. But actually I don't 
know if you still use this line, because there were several updates, also 
regarding the gsmd.

Cheers
