Hey Doug,
I tried doing all the same for my Lifdrive, but in vain. Did you, by any
chance got succeeded in doing it for lifedrive or does anybody have
succeeded doing this for lifedrive for that matter ?
regards

Subject: USB debugging on T|X
I was finally able to debug on my T|X and, even though this has probably
been discussed before, I thought I'd summarize what I did.
First off, I was able to put the T|X into console mode with the
shortcut-dot-2 sequence. This was working all along, but I had forgotten
that the only indicator is that blinking pixel in the lower right corner.
So I was OK there.
The real problem was that my CW9 was not able to access the USB port. Guru
Ben Combee wrote a KB article about putting the USBPort.dll file into a
different location, but what he wrote was a bit confusing since he said to
use a folder under "My Documents" that I'd never heard of. The more
accurate solution is to say to move that file to your Palm Desktop root
folder, wherever that happens to be. I have not changed my Palm folder
since I started out with my IIIx, so it is still C:\Palm for me and I have
always upgraded into that folder.
The other apparently important thing to do is to *move* the DLL there, not
simply *copy* it. My USBPort.dll was in the Win/System32 folder, so I
moved it to C:\Palm and rebooted to get everything cleaned up. So now CW9
and Hotsync are both working correctly, talking to my T|X (but not at the
same time!).
Just thought I'd clear this up in case anyone else is having this type of
problem. The other thing to note is that my need for this was due to the
T|X itself behaving differently from the Simulator in regards to events
posted by the 5-way control. The problem was easy to fix, but hard to see
without the actual device debugging!
