Hi
I followed Craig's suggestion and created /tmp/pilot.
Previously, I have these in files:
1. add following lines to /etc/udev/rules.d/20-pilot.rules
BUS=="usb",SYSfs{product}=="Palm Handheld",
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*",Name{ignore_remove}=="pilot", MODE=="188"
this may be overwritten by /tmp/pilot.
2. in file, /usr/share/gnome-pilot/devices.xml add following line
<!-- Palm Tungsten T5 -->
<device vendor_id="0830" product_id="0061" />
after the palm was plugged in and switched on. the visor module was
automatically loaded.
I tested. timing is critic.
after press hotsync 1-2 seconds,
issue command:
pilot-xfer -p /tmp/pilot -l
Connection is ok. I used /tmp/pilot as device and get gpilotd tested ok
too, except there was problem to sync calendar.
Good luck.
