Hello, I'm trying to get my Zire 31 to sync with my new 6.0 laptop, but am having no success. I learned the other day that 6.0 no longer uses /dev/ucom0, but instead uses /dev/cuaU0 Ok, fine. So I log on as root (I just want to get this workng for now -- I'll worry about the devfs permissions later) and: 1. Attach my Zire 31 with USB cable 2. Hit the HotSync button on the Zire I see dmesg output: ucom0: PalmOne, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2 ucom0: PalmOne, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2 Good, right? I'm pretty sure this is the exact same output I got on 5.2.1, 5.3 and 5.4 when attached. 3. So then I try: # pilot-xfer -p /dev/cuaU0 -l or # pilot-xfer -p /dev/cuaU0 -b ~/palmbkp or # ln -s /dev/cuaU0 /dev/pilot & pilot-xfer -b ~/palmbkp and all I get is: Listening to port: /dev/cuaU0 Please press the HotSync button now... and that's it. Nothing. I already hit HotSync button to get ucom0 to register, so now what? If my memory serves me correct, on 5.2.1-5.4, I could "pilot-xfer" without hitting HotSync button first, then hit HotSync when it was ready. So I'm really confused now. Is there something I am missing? Or is something broken? Yes, I recompiled my kernel with uvisor and ucom, so I don't think that's it. Should I take them out of kernel and use kldload instead? I might try that while waiting for a reply. Thanks in advance for any help, DW
