[EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever Confirmed| |1 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-01 13:03 ------- Ok, let me guess : you have a Clié N6x0C or something like that :(( (I have one).. These devices needs to use /dev/usb/tts/0 instead of 1 but unfortunately, there is no way to autodetect if a particular Palm devices needs 1 or 0 USB port : >From /usr/share/doc/pilot-link-0.11.7/README.usb : (as of the time of this README, two Sony models use /dev/ttyUSB0, and the rest of the Sony and Palm models use /dev/ttyUSB1) Current workaround is to use /dev/usb/tts/0 instead of /dev/pilot. FredL, could we try to modify /etc/dynamic/scripts/visor.script to try to handle this "switch" more dynamically ? I seem a compatibility table is available in /usr/share/doc/pilot-link-0.11.7/README.usb but it is still incomplete.. Anyway, this won't be completely fixed until Mdk 9.2 .. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: Having read the pilot-link web pages, how-tos, man pages etc. I was expecting to `lsmod' and see usbcore, usb-uhci, usbserial and visor. All I see is usbcore and usb-uhci. Pressing the Hot Sync button on the Palm produces a KPilot icon on the KDe desktop. Pressing this launches KPilot which reports: 22:11:53 Trying to open device... 22:11:53 Could not open device: /dev/pilot (will retry) `lsmod' output is usbcore and usb-uhci /dev/pilot is a symbolic link to /dev/usb/tts/1 `modprobe'ing usbserial and visor make no difference at all `lsmod' produces the output: visor 10440 0 usbserial 21468 0 [visor] usb-uhci 24652 0 (unused) usbcore 72992 1 [usbdnet visor usbserial usb-uhci] The Pilot is connected via the cradle cable into the USB port. It makes no difference if "Cradle/Cable" or "Direct USB/Serial" options are chosen on the Pilot before doing the Hot Sync. Running `addresses' outputs: No $PILOTPORT specified and no -p <port> given. Defaulting to '/dev/pilot' ERROR: No such device (19) Press the HotSync button first and relaunch this conduit.. Unable to bind to port: /dev/pilot None of the pilot-link programs can contact it. How does KDE pick up the fact that there is a Palm attached when none of the USB modules know about it ?!?!
