I may be misunderstanding what you are doing, but you have to run odccm manually or in a bootscript. Udev fires up the serial connection but has no control over odccm. Does that help ? As an aside, I have got a connection over bluetooth to work, but it wasn't easy, mostly because I knew almost nothing about bluetooth at the time :) Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
