Turning on the GPRS connection on boot (QTMoko)

[Glen Ogilvie]

Hi,

I am looking for a way to get the GPRS connection to start from the command 
line, or from boot in QTMoko.   It works fine when I go to Internet settings 
and turn it on, but want to setup the open moko so it does this automatically.  
I am using this always connected to power, and want to be able to connect in 
from the Internet at any time.


Any ideas?  I have been trying to run the pppd process from the command line 
with the same options as I can see when QTMoko starts the process, but no luck 
so far.

Regards
Glen Ogilvie

Hi,

My doc http://www.unixarea.de/openmoko.txt describes in chapt. 7 all
details about how to launch pppd from scripts; ofc it is Om2008 based,
but you should be able to adapt this to your distribution.
