I don't know what permissions are on the USB port itself (which will determine my permissions as these override the link permissions) as I can't see where the port is actually created! Anyone know where these 'on the fly' USB ports actually live so I can look to see what permissions are on it??? Looking in /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions I see the following...but am not sure how entries are selected (ie where the string 'pilot' comes from to trigger these settings). # pilot/palm devices pilot:root:uucp:0660 In /etc/udev/rules.d/10-visor.rules I have BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="Palm Handheld*", KERNEL="ttyUSB*", SYMLINK="pilot" which suggests that, as the /dev/pilot symlink is created everything is working properly, except that there does appear to be a permissions issue, given the jpilot error message... pi_bind Invalid argument Check your serial port and settings Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_BIND Finished Help! -- Robert Hart hartr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx +61 (0)438 385 533 Brisbane, Australia http://www.hart.wattle.id.au
