6000 - Tosa / VPN/Minicom issues

« on: July 28, 2004, 06:47:55 pm »

I've been trying to get the VPN software from killefiz.de to work on my 6000.  There seem to be two VPN packages available, neither with extensive documentation as to what it should do.  OpenVPN downloads into a tar file that the installer doesn't recognize - I've been puzzled by this before with other packages.  Is the 6000 somehow incompatible with ollder ipk files?

The installer recognizes the vpnc ipk, but fails on the extraction of some files (notably the vpnc executable).

Has anyone got either of these to work?

I'm also trying to get minicom to work, and it runs, but it interacts poorly with curses so the screen looks cruddy and then it seems to hang when I try to connect to the modem.  Anyone using this package?

I'm using the pocketop.  It works just fine except that the / key is awkwardly hidden.

6000 - Tosa / Conversion from Palm

« on: June 04, 2004, 11:29:08 am »

Anyone have any suggestions on converting from Palm?  I understand you can beam stuff from the palm to the Z, but not with my Palm (it died - hence the Z).  p2z seems to hang forever when run on the Z, so I ran p2zDesktop, which worked (once I got all the Perl stuff I needed), but it creates xml files and the Z is using something else.  Or do I bring the xml files into QTopia or something?

thanks
