That's all I wanted to hear. Someone to say that right now it doesn't
work. There are some programmers working very hard at this and I have allot
of respect for them, but right now, it just isn't possible. Not on Mandrake
anyway. I know that two programmers have it working on their beta's, but I
don't know what version of Linux they are using and the Kernel has plenty to
do with if it will work or not. David Desrosiers has done much work on
pilot link (http://www.pilot-link.org) and a programmer by the name of Judd
has it almost working perfect also (http://www/jpilot.org). But I don't
think either has it working on Mandrake. Soon though! Meanwhile I'll go
buy the serial cable. Francisco, do you press the sync button before
activating the sync on your software? I'm curious about all those rumors I
have heard too!
