does anyone use a clie here? i was able to successfully hotsync and install programs on my clie using pilot-link and jpilot.
Now, my clie has a msimport (no not microsoft, "memory stick") feature. just connect the clie (thru usb) to a computer, run the msimport app, and the memory stick becomes accessible as a mass storage device. this works flawlessly in windows 2000 and above (a driver is needed for win98) as for linux, i know it recognizes it (thru the usb-storage module of the kernel), here is the dump from the /var/log/messages <--snip!--> xxx kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 6 xxx kernel: usb.c: USB device 6 (vend/prod 0x54c/0x58) is not claimed by any active driver. xxx /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup usb-storage for USB product 54c/58/100 xxx kernel: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 xxx kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... xxx kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage xxx kernel: scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices xxx kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 88 xxx kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 1044 xxx kernel: Vendor: Sony Model: CLIE N700C Rev: 1.00 xxx kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 xxx kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered. <--snip!--> the usb-storage module emulates the device as a SCSI drive, the contents of /proc/scsi/scsi is <--snip!--> Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: Sony Model: CLIE N700C Rev: 1.00 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 <--snip!--> /sbin/lsusb also reports that it recognizes the device (output too long to include here) so as with the docs and the manuals say, i should to a mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/clie however, after displaying the following in /var/log/messages, <--snip!--> Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 <--snip!--> it hangs (no output). a `ps aux` displays : <--snip!--> root 1756 0.0 0.1 3164 496 pts/6 S 15:08 0:00 mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/clie root 1757 0.0 0.3 1868 940 pts/6 D 15:08 0:00 /sbin/modprobe -s -k -- block-major-8 <--snip!--> so modprobe is waiting for a device.
