When you use the short codes, don't use yes or no, they are for the long forms.
So: /usr/bin/gvm/gvm -O -z 1.5 -f -i D050 -a PLDE -u "Xxx Xxx:1107"
I know it's a bit confusing because _some_ of the short options need the parameter (e.g. -z).

TA-t3,
Thanks! It worked this time--well, actually, the GVM crashed the first time and I lost my setup, but I was able to get it restored and working finally!

Next-up, setting up eight gvm.store's and seeing if I can get them working well enough for me to have access to my most important Palm TX apps on the n810!

Hello all,
Just for future reference, here's the longest chain of options after the "gvm" command that I've gotten to work (in a script):

Code:
#!/bin/sh#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/gvm/gvm -a IMGE -O -f -i D050 -n XXXXXXXXXXXX -u "Xxx Xxx:1107" -z 1.5 -L 0x0000,0x0000,0x0000 -g gvm.store_1
/usr/bin/gvm is where the "gvm" command is located

-a IMGE launches Resco Explorer

-O sets rotation

-f sets fullscreen

-i D050 is the Device ID for a Palm TX

-n XXXX... sets the serial number. I found mine using the information tab in Filez (I suspect it might affect the device number that Mobipocket generates, but I haven't tried it yet). In Filez, my serial number came with an "-N" at the end. For the gvm command, just leave the "-N" off.

-u "Xxx Xxx:1107" sets the Hotsync ID. The four-digit number after the Hotsync ID is optional, as far as I understand. I found "1107" within one of the files that is similar to where the Hotsync ID is stored (sorry, I forgot where, but you can look around with Resco Explorer)

-z 1.5 sets the magnication

-L 0x0000,0x0000,0x0000 sets the background to black [Thanks, dfinch!]

-g gvm.store_1 launches from a specified gvm.store file located within /home/user/.gvm [Thanks, burmashave!] so you can have multiple Palm VM's

Now, to find out if I can launch the gvm-launcher program with a Hotsync ID option!
