If you're using devfs, the usb device does not show up until the palm actually |
| 2 |
makes a connection. You should also have the usbserial and visor modules |
| 3 |
compiled. On my box it shows as /dev/usb/tts/0 and /1. Not exactly sure |
| 4 |
what /0 is for, but using /1 works fine for me. Using pilot-link (haven't |
| 5 |
used gpilot), I hit the hotsync button, then immediately fire up the pilot |
| 6 |
command. Kpilot will keep an eye out for the device node to show up so the |
| 7 |
timing isn't necessary, maybe gpilot does something similar. However I have |
| 8 |
had pretty bad kde lockups while using kpilot, don't do much more than |
| 9 |
backups so the command line tools suffice for me. |
