Hi folks,
I posted a query here a while back, but then decided I didn't know
enough of what I was doing to continue, so went back to re-read
the HOWTOs. Having done that, however, I still find that I'm
none the wiser!
So, could you guys give me a few hints to get me started on the
right track..?
Basically, I have a Palm Vx with a TDK Systems Blue5 attachment, and a
USB dongle connected to my linux box (running Fedora Core 4). What I
would like to do is set up a BT connection to transfer data back and
forth using pilot-link. My problem is, I don't know what the major
high level steps towards achieving this goal are - e.g. what should
actually happen when a pair is achieved? How is the data transfered -
is it through the /dev/rfcomm0 device, as though this were a serial
device?
My current status is that I can see the Palm from the linux machine
and vice versa - but I'm unable to get them to pair - however, from
this point on, I've been going round in circles, primarily because
I don't really know what *should* happen when they *do* pair!
Any advice greatly appreciated!
Yours in confusion,
Ian
