I have followed the above Wiki article, and have hit a snag. |
35 |
|
36 |
In the article it says |
37 |
|
38 |
Start off by attempting to get the basic information about the PDA. Run |
39 |
pilot-xfer --port /dev/tts/USB1 --list and hit the hotsync button on the |
40 |
PDA when prompted. It should spit out a list of information. We're not |
41 |
terribly interested in the information, just the fact that communication |
42 |
is possible. |
43 |
|
44 |
Note: If it reports something like... |
45 |
|
46 |
The device /dev/tts/USB1 does not exist.. |
47 |
Possible solution: |
48 |
|
49 |
mknod /dev/tts/USB1 c <major> <minor> |
50 |
|
51 |
Unable to bind to port: /dev/tts/USB1 |
52 |
Please use --help for more information |
53 |
|
54 |
...it means that your udev daemon is not creating the right |
55 |
/dev/tts/USB* files. But if you run pilot-xfer AFTER pressing HotSync |
56 |
button, the pilot-xfer does not report the problem, and USB* show up in |
57 |
the /dev/tts dir. Try changing from USB1 to USB0, or try using |
58 |
/dev/pilot after pressing the HotSync button. |
59 |
|
60 |
|
61 |
|
62 |
I am getting that error message, and have tried resetting the path |
63 |
repeatedly, and nothing seems to make a difference, Im not sure where to |
64 |
go from here? |
65 |
|
66 |
can someone please point me to a solution? |
