Roland,
The answer is native usb palm connection (-p usb:/dev/ugen0) does not
work. Though you can always use slower serial over usb link. AFAIK next
pilot-link release 0.13 will use libusb and get support for latest
direct usb protocol changes. This probably give us a bigger chances.
All the best,
Alexander.
