Debian/Linux not recognizing Handspring Visor
Hello all,
I am trying to sync my Handspring Visor to gnome-pilot (Evolution fills
my needs for a mailer/PIM/calendar) Its not working, the USB is okay.
I think I have pretty much included all of the diagnostic stuff. I've
been working on this for quite a while.
If you could figure out whats going on, I'd be greatly appreciative.
Thanks,
Don Napier
Specs:
Visor Deluxe 8M with Cradle (old one)
Debian Unstable, with hotplug
Tyan Tsunami, 300Mhz Celeron
128M Ram, NVidia Vid card
I pretty much followed the Handspring HOWTO to the tee.
I created the /dev values by using this command (16 times)
mknod /dev/ttyUSBX c 188 X
Results of coldsync:
don@stryper:/proc/bus/usb$ coldsync -p /dev/ttyUSB1
