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 ..

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 ?!?!
