Could someone please tell me how exactly they got it to work. Could you write the steps out one-by-one? I mean, I'm not even sure how to create the links correctly. Thanks for any help you are willing to give a newbie!
|
I'll get to ya on this, hopefully, this weekend, I have a little time that I was planning on writing this up.
|
Thanks
I'll be sure to include your help in my message to LinuxAnswers (unless you tell me not to). I will be sure to give you credit if I send it in!

I chmoded all of the USB ports to 666 by
chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB* Then I deleted any links that I had before to /dev/pilot and made a new one with ln -s /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/pilot I then ran an lsmod and found that the visor module was not running, so I did a .... modprobe visor which started it. I then opened JPilot and snych was successful! Not sure if I tried the lsmod/modprobe combo before or if my recent kernel upgrade from 2.4.20-18.9 to 2.4.20-19.9 was the trick. I then added the modprobe visor line to the file at /etc/rc.d/rc.local so that the visor module would load at session startup. |
That did it buddy. I am now completely Linux! Thanks.
(for those searching I run debian, not redhat) |
Care to share how? I've got mine working with polot-xfer and jpilot just fine, but Gnome Pilot Settings does not work at all and therefore I can't get Ximian Evolution to work either.

I only have mine working in JPilot, not in Ximian (Gnome Pilot)....am interested myself.

Thanks. I'll post a new thread then.

jpilot works great.... or at least it did. I haven't reactivated it since my last reinstall. |
