The UI of qgvdial is in flux. I am moving to a QML based UI for uniformity across platforms as well as modularization of the design.

[I'm not getting CALL-OUT]
The combo box on the dial page has two types of entries: One set has the names and numbers of the phones that the user registered with Google voice. These entries are all for call back.
Immediately after these entries, there should be a set of entries that start with words like "sofiasip" "ring" or "spirit". These entries represent the connection managers (CM) that qgvdial found on the users n900. These CM can be used to call out. I have not yet found a reliable way to find out the outgoing phone identity for any CM, and so all I can show is the name of the CM and its user account.
Note: spirit=skype. sofiasip=SIP, ring=standard GSM call.

4) where's the logfile? I looked for /home/user/qgvdial.log
True, true and no longer present.
As I mentioned before, the UI is in flux. The version of qgvdial right now is almost an entire re-write. Logfile and about have not yet been implemented. Logs are generated, but they are sent to console and so are lost at the moment (unless you start qgvdial on xterm and save the output).

QML work is inching forward very slowly because I am still learning how to make the most basic UI elements. For example, the combo box. There is no native QML element for a combo box. I haven't as yet figured out how or what to do there.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
