Hi,

I'm trying to communicate with a TRGpro connected vi cuaa0 but I just get
timeouts. /dev/palm is a symlink to cuaa0.

I tried coldsync first, my .coldsynrc looks like:

listen serial {
    device: /dev/palm;
    speed: 9600;
}

pda "TRGpro" {
    snum: 4NOM2BM00646-E;
    default;
}

but when I run it I get:

Please press the HotSync button.
ACK Timeout. Attempting to resend.
ACK Timeout. Attempting to resend.
<snip>
ACK Timeout. Attempting to resend.
Error establishing CMP connection.
Error: Can't connect to Palm.

The TRGpro tells me the connection to my desktop could not be established.
 jpilot gives a similar error. I tried using cu and pressing the hotsync
button on the palm cradle and I receive some binary data. I've tried
different baud rates but the docs seem to indicate the plam accepts almost
any speeds.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Andrew
