*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 222052 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222052 I just added intrepid to my apt sources, downloaded linux-image-2.6.27-3-generic to my 8.04 system, installed it and booted it and can confirm the bug has been resolved there. I also did a complete installation of xubuntu (intrepid alpha6) and the problem in resolved there too (2.6.27-4-generic) xubuntu is the best ubuntu variant by the way.

Have updated to Ubuntu 8.10, Alpha 3, which uses the 2.6.26 kernel, and still cannot sync with Evolution, either via usb: or loading the Visor module and using /dev/ttyUSB1. So something that just WORKED in 7.10 is still broken in 8.10 (at least in my installation): I still wonder if this is a permissions issue? Any suggestions?

I realize that 8.10 is still in alpha, and we should expect breakage to happen. However, Mr. Crowther's comments about not being able to sync with Evolution on 8.10 alpha 3 concern me. The workaround using usb: instead of the visor module does not work for me on an up-to-date 8.04 system with a Palm m130.

I had hoped that this would just begin to work again with a new version of the kernel. Mr. Crowther, was your 8.10 alpha 3 system created from a clean install or a dist-upgrade? Good point; I used dist-upgrade, which has always given clunky results in the past. I use a separate partition as home, so the likelihood of importing the same problem to even a clean install is high, if it is a settings issue. In the interests of checking if this is the case, I have, over the past few months, reverted to 7.10, using my Live CD, without formatting my home partition, and synced successfully. I then reinstalled 8.04 from a Live CD, including formatting my home partition, so no existing settings or permissions would have been carried over, and cannot sync. I tried to compile the 2.6.25 kernel and made a hash of it (killed my nvidia driver and decided it was too much trouble to put right), so I decided to wait until Ubuntu started to use a kernel other than 2.6.24. That (so far) hasn't helped. I will do an install of 8.10 from a Live CD in October, when it is released in all its final majesty, perhaps then..? You will gather I am not a tech expert, so I need a solution that pretty much works out of the box, and this issue is a long way off that for me yet. -- visor module broken in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS's kernel (2.6.24-16) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226197 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 226197] Re: visor module broken in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS's kernel (2.6.24-16)
Tom, you are right, the visor kernel module can by bypassed if you use the libusb library instead. I got this to work after I downloaded the pilot-link sources and reading the README.libusb doc. First I installed apt-get install libusb-dev although I don't think it was absolutely necessary. The pilot-link sources also come with a 60-libpisock.rules file that needs to be placed into /etc/udev/rules.d/ followed by a reboot so it's read by the system. After that, the command pilot-xfer -p usb: -l prints a message: Listening for incoming connection on usb:... instead of saying Unable to bind to port. This Listening is an indicator that libusb is being used and hitting the hotsync button allowed my Garmin iQue 3600 to by synced using ubuntu's 8.04 stock kernel !!! I'm using pilot-link directly (the pilot-xfer conduit) but I believe the 60-libpisock.rules file should help users of other software like gnome-pilot since most of them use pilot-link under the hood. This nice workaround doesn't mean that the bug I filed does not hold. The visor module is indeed broken for kernel 2.6.24 and ubuntu should fix it, or update to the 2.6.25 kernel for 8.04. -- visor module broken in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS's kernel (2.6.24-16) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226197 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This may be totally superfluous, but it took me a little while to work out: The 'usb' connection type (in, say, your gnome-pilot settings) might also work for your PDA. If your device works in this way, then the faulty kernel module is bypassed.
