gambas2-runtime is in the Ubuntu Software Center for Ubuntu 12.04. For later versions of Ubuntu Gambas2 has been updated to (superseded by) Gambas3. If this doesn't work, you could try installing Nokia Suite on a Windows PC if you have one. Nokia Support Discussions for Nokia Suite is mainly for Windows users.

You can connect your Nokia phone in Ubuntu using wvdial from the Ubuntu Software Center. For information about how to connect your Nokia phone using wvdial see this step-by-step tutorial: Connect your Nokia phone with Linux without PC Suite.

All of the steps in the tutorial have to be run from the terminal. To open the terminal use the keyboard combination Ctrl+Alt+T. The terminal commands in the tutorial are highlighted in red letters. For example to run the first command in the tutorial, connect your Nokia phone to your computer via data cable, open the terminal and type:

lsusb  

This command will list all USB devices that are connected to your computer. You can identify your Nokia phone by looking for a line in the output of lsusb that has something like the string Nokia Mobile in it.

The third command in the tutorial is:

wvdialconf create  

If you have already installed wvdial then you can run the preceding command without installing anything else, but this command will not run properly in Ubuntu 13.10, so substitute the following command for it instead:

sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

This will create a file named wvdial.conf in your /etc directory.

The last command in the tutorial is:

sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf  

This command will not run properly in Ubuntu 13.10, so you have to run the following two commands instead, which will allow you to use Gedit for editing the wvdial.conf file in Ubuntu 13.10:

sudo apt-get install gksu
gksudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf   

It is basically the same command as in the tutorial, only you have to substitute gksudo for sudo to open Gedit from the terminal, because Gedit is a graphical application.

In Ubuntu 18.04 and later gksu has been discontinued so use this command instead:

sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/sources.list &>/dev/null
