[Bug 25653] Re: gnome-pilot needs to be ported to new udev world order

[Olivier Cortès]

Hi,
surrely related to this bug, i can't hotsync with an IBM WorkPad c505 (rebranded Palm m505c, Palm OS 4.0), connected with USB cradle on up-to-date Dapper. When I press HotSync button on cradle, dmesg reports :

[4300354.008000] usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 12
[4300354.140000] visor 2-2:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected
[4300354.140000] usb 2-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[4300354.140000] usb 2-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1

When The device reports "failed connection", the usb device disapear.

After many try-and-failures, one of my attempts to connect succeded
(when the pilot applet was launched from Evo 2.6 if that matters),
gnome-pilot was able to get my HandHeld Name and ID, but no more...
Since then I hadn't be able to sync, even one time.

Should i add that under WinXP it works, i used the Palm app to put my
Handheld name and ID in the device. (not synched because no data on any
side at this time, i just used windows to verify the hardware was not
broken since this is a second hand device).

If that matters too, the successfull connection occured on ttyUSB1 (the
handheld creates 0 & 1).

I tried Daniel's packages, with no luck.
