I am using Acer Aspire One (Linux Linpus which is an offshoot of fedora 8) with Blackberry Bold on Rogers network.

I am new to Blackberry and Linux and I found getting Barry going kinda difficult. I read that Linpus is hard to make work sometimes but after some rpm hunting I got to the pppd call which returned :

Connect script failed
Waiting for 1 child processes...
script /usr/sbin/pppob, pid 28492
sending SIGTERM to process 28492

my BB is listed under lsusb and btool so I guess it's up to connect script work...

since the Bold uses 3G, I suspect I may encounter more hurdles. Any idea where to start?

Thanks,

JF
