Access to XDA Orbit (1) via USB and IP-address?

[white_rabbit]

Hi. Is it possible to connect the xda orbit via usb-cable to a PC/Notebook and give it a regular IP-Adress then? I want to use finchsync (http://www.finchsync.com on Kubuntu Linux) but obviously it cannot find the PDA because it has no IP address :(

The next question is, if anybody got KMobiletools and the XDA work together -- not via bluetooth but via usb? Possible too?

Thanks!

It's certainly possible because I used to plug mine in the USB for updating QuickGPS. Don't ask me how though...
