Hi list,
I used my Palm Tungsten E under SuSE 9.1 prof. quite easy, without
problems. I set up the ppp connection according to a script in the net:
# PalmPPP - By Patrick Khoo - March 6, 2000
# See how we were started
case "$1" in
start)
# Start PPP Link to Palm
echo -n "Starting PalmPPP: "
/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyUSB1 115200 192.168.0.2:192.168.0.5 \
passive local crtscts noauth nodeflate proxyarp \
-detach ms-dns 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 \
asyncmap 0
echo "Done."
echo " "
;;
stop)
# Stop PPP Link to Palm
echo -n "Stopping PalmPPP: "
killall pppd
echo "Done."
echo ""
;;
*)
echo "Usage: palmppp {start|stop}"
echo " "
exit 1
esac
exit 0
Thi I needed for my AvantGo and VersaMail settings. The thing functioned
without problems; I could fetch my mails, send them, synchronize with
AvantGo. Since I am under Fedora Core 3 the Palm device allways tells
me, it is not able to resolve (e.g. pop.gmx.net); it asks, if I could
provide the numeric IP of the server. I did it, but it did not help.
The device knows a primary DNS (that is my router, I am hanging on); I
did not change anything on the script above, I just burned it and
copied onto the new system.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance,
