Palm device difficulties
I have a Palm device that I have been syncing without too much hassle to Evolution (FC3).
The difficulty is that each time I reboot, I have to give read/write access to non root for ttyS0 (done through nautilus as I don't know the command line yet), then regenerate the link to the pilot (ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/pilot) and restart the pilot daemon. Is there any way that I can set this up so I don't have to go through these steps each time? Thanks! Rob |
I assume you're using udev, so go to /etc/udev/permissions.d and create a rule that says ttyS0 should be universally read-write-able. And then /etc/udev/rules.d and add a rule that says ttyS0 should be symlinked to pilot - you should be able to work out how this works from the existing config files.
Incidentally, the command from the CLI to change the permissions is "chmod 666 ttyS0" |
Great! Thanks oneandone...
I changed 50-udev.permissions to now read: Code:
# serial+dialup devices I also set gpilotd to look to /dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/pilot, as it will always be going in the only serial port I have. Thanks for the help! Rob |
