At work, I'm responsible for laptops of our employees and we are running linux on it, so I have access to few Lenovo and Dell models which I will be testing for Fedora too (as hobby).

Everything seemed to work fine except for being able to sync my Palm Treo 680. When starting the Gnome Pilot wizard, it couldn't find my device. This problem seems to be the same as it is in Fedora 7. Will this program be able to work with the Palm Treo and will it be able to allow you to sync consistently out of the box with Fedora 8t3? I have previously filed bugs in Bugzilla but it seems that no one is working on this. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It does not have to be USB but I would prefer it to be USB. I found this wireless linux site: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices/USB which lists a number of USB wireless devices as being supported. Is this not the case? Am I reading the list incorrectly? Maybe the USB support is something new to the 2.6.23 kernel. The home page for linuxwireless has the following news blurb dated Oct 10, 2007: "Linux 2.6.23 was released today. On the wireless front, a variety of fixes and improvements were contributed all over the place. The biggest news items are the inclusion of the rtl8187 driver, which supports USB devices based on the RTL8187 chipset, and zd1211rw enhancements to support devices based on the Atheros AR5007UG USB chipset."
