Hello all!

After having spent days on messing around wiht my new lkittle toy, a cheap
Palm M100 I have decided to ask before I despair wih hte PPP connection. 

I have read a lot about settin it up, and I have tried to follow all and
more but to no avail. 

My laptop, which does not have a serial port, but an irda smc-ircc FIR
port, works fine with pilot-xfer, however when tring to establish a PPP
connection I have no luck. 

I can choose on the PALM wether I want an IR connection or a serial
connection under details it tells me that PPP is an option. I use Palm OS
3.5.11 which I guess is the standard for the M100 Palm. 

I can"t get PPP to work with the serial port either. 

I have tried the following options on the Linux side. 

pppd /dev/ircomm00 57600 (tried various speeds) nodetach local silent
192.168.1.1:192.168.1.2 proxyarp noauth +pap 

I have tried all of tehse in various combinations. 

Modules on the laptop are irda, ircomm, irport, irtty, ircomm-tty,
smc-ircc (driver for my chip), again I have tried various combinations. 

discovery is on ( echo 1 a.s.f.)

irattach /dev/ircomm0 is executed to make pilot-xfer work. 


Backing up with pilot-xfer works like a whistle. 

Has anyone gotten an m100 to work with linux ppp? or am I trying something
that won't work currently.  Or did I just miss something vital. 


Any help is appreciated. 

Many thanks, and a happy new year to all of you.
