I just got a Palm Pilot Professional two days ago. Last night I got pilot-link running, no problems whatsoever, hardly read the README. Managed to install some drawing programs, and the getrom program, and downloaded my ROM, and got the xcopilot emulator running. Now I use it to test programs before I install them.
I never even bothered to boot down to NT or 95 to try the CDROM that came with the Pilot. I compiled all the tools. I use Debian 2.0. I have a PS/2 mouse, and don't have a modem, so my serial ports are free. The README suggested to "cd /dev ; ln ttyS0 pilot" to create a "/dev/pilot" device for convenience. I found pilot-xfer was looking for "/dev/pilot" even when I specified the serial port. That is, it was ignoring that command line option. So do that and try "pilot-xfer -l". So... when is Debian packaging Linux for Palm Pilot? ;-) -- SEGV Homepage: http://www.cgocable.net/~mlepage/ Java Game Engine: http://www.cgocable.net/~mlepage/YAGE/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
