Due to a filesystem issue (Let this be a lesson to you, don't fsck.reiserfs a ext3 filesystem, even though it does not seem to know the difference) I've reinstalled my karmic xubuntu system.
I noticed a few strange things that certainly show there is something going wrong. 1. The first time I tried to sync jpilot did not complain, but the attempt crashed my Clie. (hard reset required) 2. Due such an extreme failure I unloaded and reloaded the visor module: sudo modprobe -r visor && sudo modprobe visor 3. Looking at the visor output I see two bindings, for both USB0 and USB1: Feb 22 10:39:02 aporia kernel: [48501.368174] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 7 Feb 22 10:39:02 aporia kernel: [48501.534433] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Feb 22 10:39:02 aporia kernel: [48501.555258] visor 2-1:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Feb 22 10:39:02 aporia kernel: [48501.555611] usb 2-1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Feb 22 10:39:02 aporia kernel: [48501.556302] usb 2-1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1 I noticed that /dev/pilot only points to /dev/ttyUSB0. 4. I changed the jpilot settings to use /dev/ttyUSB0. The result is that both jpilot and the clie sit there waiting to communicate, but neither able to do so. Jpilot prints "press hotsync button" (already pressed to initiate the USB connection), and the clie says waiting to connect. 5. I changed the jpilot settings to /dev/ttyUSB1. And guess what, all works as it did in Jaunty. Jan-Willem, can you see if this procedure works for you? (unload, reload, change settings to use ttyUSB1 (if your /var/log/messages says its being bound like mine does) and then sync? It appears to me that there visor should only see one converter attached, there is only one converter, and only one ttyUSB should be bound, not two. .b.
