Hopefully! At least, I managed to make a connection to my WM5 PDA. I'm |
| 9 |
not using any synchronization, however, just filesystem access. |

|
| 11 |
A suggestion right at the start: Check out the SynCE-WindowsMobile5 |
| 12 |
mailing list. Dr J A Gow is currently making huge efforts regarding the |
| 13 |
synchronization engine, but he maintains it currently out-of-tree. |
| 14 |
Check the February Archive at sourceforge. |

The problem, however, is that the synce development is heavily |
| 20 |
fragmented, partly there are even parallel efforts. I really, really |
| 21 |
recommend to resort to the svn versions of everything: |

Hopefully it will stabilize and we will see regular packages. |

Actually, Bluetooth may even be more simple -- but I can't check, I |
| 29 |
don't own bluetooth adapters. |

Remember to enable USB networking in the kernel |
| 32 |
(CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER), compile it as module, and then install |
| 33 |
usb-rndis-lite drivers. You might even have to delete the modules that |
| 34 |
the kernel generated in order to use the usb-rndis-lite ones, because |
| 35 |
they will have the same name as the vanilla-kernel modules. It is |
| 36 |
important to compile them in you kernel beforehand in order to have the |
| 37 |
kernel include some needed symbols. |

Also, remember to compile odccm with desktop integration. HAL and dbus |
| 41 |
should be running when you start odccm. "dmesg" should tell that there |
| 42 |
is a new rndis device when you plug in your WM5 PDA. |
