OK - I did several experiments. Unfortunately, I was unable to reproduce the situation I mentioned befor when pilot-xfer worked 2 times in about 20 tries. But here are the results of my experiments. I tried 3 different USB sockets on my machine. Below I've written what I did each time and included syslog entries. The first few experiments use the USB plug in the back of the computer There are now no /dev/ttyUSB* or /dev/pilot devices Plug in USB cable - ttyUSB0 and 1 and /dev/pilot now exist try pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l and push Palm hotsync button - no result Jul 8 12:15:18 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: new full speed USB device using address 68 Jul 8 12:15:18 shlomo1 kernel: visor 2-3:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Jul 8 12:15:18 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Jul 8 12:15:18 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1 Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: USB disconnect, address 68 Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: visor 2-3:1.0: device disconnected Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: new full speed USB device using address 69 Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: visor 2-3:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB2 Jul 8 12:15:47 shlomo1 kernel: usb 2-3: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB3 Ctrl-Z + cancel Palm hotsync Palm timed out -
