I am gathering through bugzilla that there is a problem with palm and USB on kernel-2.6.9-1.681_FC3 - apparently not on kernel-2.6.9-1.667 I am trying to work these things through but I am confused by udev # cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-udev.rules BUS="usb", SYSFS{serial}="0000:00:02.1", NAME="pilot" # cat /etc/udev/permissions.d/10-udev.permissions pilot*:root:usb:0666 is my setup. If I press the sync button on the Palm - nothing happens. gpilot is running and so is the applet... $ ps aux|grep gpilot craig 5503 0.4 1.7 22196 8880 ?
