Hi Darren, and welcome to Barry! There is nothing special in Barry to make the modem easy to use via any GUI. All it installs is the library, pppob (the command line tunnel to the modem), and some ppp options files and chatscripts under /etc/ppp and /etc/chatscripts, if you are using binary packages. > If it just presents itself as a serial port it may just need a .fdi so > that it can be recognized.

Please send any patches to the list, and keep us posted. > I also see some back and forth on the Blackberry Bold, if I use the > version via CVS does the bold work properly? As you are probably seeing on the list, some features, like password support are a work in progress. Best way to find out for yourself is to try. The latest CVS is fairly stable for a devel tree, and does have fixes that are not in 0.14. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Barry-devel mailing list Barry-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/barry-devel
