Douglas, I also tried to get my Visor working with J-Pilot and couldn't even manage the first stage of getting pilot-link working. I found some documentation (can't remember where) about using ucom devices instead of usb ones and whilst I managed to get the system to recognise the Visor when I hit the HotSync button, pilot-link refused to see the device. I'm relatively inexperienced w.r.t. FreeBSD but a colleague with years of use of FreeBSD couldn't get it to work either. In the end I decided to increase the vintage of my OS to v4.8 ;o) Tony On Mon, Jun 09, 2003 at 10:13:59AM -0500, Douglas G.
