That's because your DevFS rules are overriding your nodes. Either blacklist them on DevFS, or tell DevFS to create user readable usb/tts/* entries. |

This is a snippet from my /etc/devfsd.conf: |

|
| 12 |
#configure USB added by YOU! |
| 13 |
REGISTER ^usb PERMISSIONS 0.0 0777 |
| 14 |
REGISTER ^usb/tts PERMISSIONS 0.0 0777 |
| 15 |
#Use this if you are using jpilot to sync |
| 16 |
#REGISTER ^usb/tts/1 EXECUTE /bin/su *YOU* -c "/usr/bin/jpilot -sync" |
| 17 |
#Use this if you are using coldsync to sync |
| 18 |
#REGISTER ^usb/tts/1 EXECUTE /bin/su *YOU* -c /usr/local/bin/sync-coldsync & |

I got it searching for a excellent page on Palm USB synchonization on Linux. Remember to change the *YOU* to your user. |
