Hi,
I'm trying to connect my PalmOne PDA to RedHat 9, which seems to come
with support for handheld PDA. However, I'm struggling to make sense of
it, as there are no instructions for this in the documentation CDROM. I
suspect I have to do something like ln /dev/ttys0 /dev/pilot (and then
maybe mount it to /home/MyPilot?), but I'm not at all sure. When I run
System Tools -> Hardware Browser, I don't get a clear indication of
'where' the PDA is connected and what the 'device name' is. As a recent
convert to linux from MS Windows, I need all the help I can get please!

Thanks and regards,
Andy
