I'm trying to sync my Handspring Visor and it just doesn't seem to be noticing it. I have the following in my /dev/usbd.conf file: device "Handspring Visor" devname "ugen[0-9]+" vendor 0x082d product 0x0100 release 0x0100 attach "chmod 0666 /dev/ugen*" as per the code that was in there for the coldsync. When I press the sync button on the cradle, these devices show up: crw-rw-rw- 1 root operator 0, 181 Oct 17 13:45 /dev/ugen0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root operator 0, 182 Oct 17 13:45 /dev/ugen0.1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root operator 0, 183 Oct 17 13:45 /dev/ugen0.2 And the following shows up in my dmesg: ugen0: Handspring Inc Handspring Visor, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 5 ugen0: at uhub6 port 4 (addr 5) disconnected All threads purged from ugen0.2 All threads purged from ugen0.1 All threads purged from ugen0 ugen0: detached But the pilot-link command fails immediately: $ pilot-xfer -p /dev/ugen0 -l Unable to bind to port: /dev/ugen0 Please use --help for more information Any ideas? I've googled all over the place, but I only see similiar questions. And the FreeBSD.README on the pilot-link web site seems to be misleading at best. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, a FreeBSD weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ UNIX is user-friendly.
