> Which palm model are you trying to synchronize BTW ?
Palm m130. Looking at the Linux Palm web sites this device should work.
I have tried the current Mandrake kernel, a home spun 2.4.19 and a home spun 2.5.59.

Having read the pilot-link web pages, how-tos, man pages etc. I was expecting
to `lsmod' and see usbcore, usb-uhci, usbserial and visor. All I see is
usbcore and usb-uhci.
Pressing the Hot Sync button on the Palm produces a KPilot icon on the KDe desktop.
Pressing this launches KPilot which reports:
22:11:53 Trying to open device...
22:11:53 Could not open device: /dev/pilot (will retry)
`lsmod' output is usbcore and usb-uhci
/dev/pilot is a symbolic link to /dev/usb/tts/1
`modprobe'ing usbserial and visor make no difference at all
`lsmod' produces the output:
visor 10440 0
usbserial 21468 0 [visor]
usb-uhci 24652 0 (unused)
usbcore 72992 1 [usbdnet visor usbserial usb-uhci]
The Pilot is connected via the cradle cable into the USB port. It makes no difference
if
"Cradle/Cable" or "Direct USB/Serial" options are chosen on the Pilot before
doing the Hot Sync.
Running `addresses' outputs:
No $PILOTPORT specified and no -p <port> given.
Defaulting to '/dev/pilot'
ERROR: No such device (19)
Press the HotSync button first and relaunch this conduit..
Unable to bind to port: /dev/pilot
None of the pilot-link programs can contact it.
How does KDE pick up the fact that there is a Palm attached when none of
the USB modules know about it ?!?!
