OK, some progress. I modprobed usbserial and things got better, and
also added ohci-hcd. But then I got: (from /var/log/messages)
Jun 25 21:48:20 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB
device using pxa27x-ohci and address 3
Jun 25 21:48:20 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2: rejected 1
configuration due to insufficient available bus power
Jun 25 21:48:20 spitz user.warn kernel: usb 1-2: no configuration chosen
from 1 choice
So, I grabbed my wife's powered hub, and things got a little better:
Jun 25 21:56:16 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 4
Jun 25 21:56:34 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB
device using pxa27x-ohci and address 5
Jun 25 21:56:35 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen
from 1 choice
Jun 25 21:56:35 spitz user.info kernel: hub 1-2:1.0: USB hub found
Jun 25 21:56:35 spitz user.info kernel: hub 1-2:1.0: 4 ports detected
I plugged in the garmin, and
Jun 25 21:57:02 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2.1: new full speed USB
device using pxa27x-ohci and address 6
Jun 25 21:57:02 spitz user.info kernel: usb 1-2.1: configuration #1
chosen from 1 choice
But still no indication of what /dev/ node was assigned. I tried all
sorts of options. /dev/ files were created like:
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 6 Jun 25 22:11 usbdev1.7
crw-rw---- 1 root root 252, 7 Jun 25 22:11 usbdev1.7_ep03
crw-rw---- 1 root root 252, 4 Jun 25 22:11 usbdev1.7_ep00
crw-rw---- 1 root root 252, 5 Jun 25 22:11 usbdev1.7_ep81
crw-rw---- 1 root root 252, 6 Jun 25 22:11 usbdev1.7_ep82
Actually, the digit after the decimal point has been incrementing each
time I re-plug in the devices. So, now we are at address 7.
But trying to send the information to any of these devices gives an
error message, as in
/home/dlj0 >gpsbabel -r -i gpx -f route.txt -o garmin -F /dev/usbdev1.7_ep00
open: No such device or address
[ERROR] SERIAL: Cannot open serial port
[ERROR] Cannot access serial port
GARMIN:Can't init /dev/usbdev1.7_ep00
/home/dlj0 >gpsbabel -r -i gpx -f route.txt -o garmin -F /dev/usbdev1.7_ep03
open: No such device or address
[ERROR] SERIAL: Cannot open serial port
[ERROR] Cannot access serial port
GARMIN:Can't init /dev/usbdev1.7_ep03
But I can't send it to a device that ain't there, and /dev/ttyusb0,
etc., aren't there. Sending it to /dev/ttyS0 creates the device file,
but does not send anything to the Garmin.
Why is the device not being created?
