comms/birda on -current and PalmPilot sync.
Hi! Does the combo in subject work for anyone? I have Win98 on this laptop, too, and it can sync. the palm over the IrDA port. However, with FreeBSD-current it does not work. Birda's irs is running as /opt/bin/irs -y /dev/ptypv -c -d /dev/ttyd1 -Y and I point coldsync to the corresponding ttypv: /opt/bin/coldsync -md -t serial -dsync:5 /dev/ttypv Which produces the following output: Summary of sync configuration: Listen: Type: 0 Device: [/dev/palm] Speed: 0 Protocol: 0 Flags: Known PDAs: The queue of conduits: Conduit: flavors: 0x0004 SYNC Creator/Types: [/] (0x/0x) Path: [[generic]] DEFAULT Headers: Preferences: Inside run_mode_Daemon() Port specified on command line: [/dev/ttypv] Listen type: 0 Protocol: 0 Using [/dev/ttypv] as Palm device. [. waits forever .] Anyone has a success to share? I tried both birda-1.00 from the ports and the later 1.1 -- without visible differences.

Guess I should look at upgrading the port I don't have a -current system at present, and the test machine I was trying to build the other day (several missing packages with 5.0-RELEASE, sigh) doesn't have IR capability. If you run irs in the foreground (drop -Y, add -v 9) and attempt to hotsync, does irs report discovery of the Pilot? If not then you need to check that you're using the right serial port and that it is configured properly (don't use PnP autoconfiguration, and if possible set it as an SIR port in the BIOS). -- brandon s allbery [openafs/solaris/japh/freebsd] [EMAIL PROTECTED] system administrator [linux/heimdal/too many hats] [EMAIL PROTECTED] electrical and computer engineering KF8NH carnegie mellon university [better check the oblivious first -ke6sls] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
