Ok...I fixed one problem, but I have another. As it turns out, I was able to get the sync to work only after doing chmod 777 on ttyUSB0. ttyUSB0 is created dynamically when I hit the hotsync button, so I can't just set those permissions and have them stick. As this is a personal system, I don't care about other users being able to access ttyUSB0, so if there was a way to have the system automatically do a 'chmod 777' (or equivalent) when the device was created, that would be really cool. How should I go about doing this? -- Aaron On Sun, 2005-20-02 at 23:47 -0800, Aaron O'Hara wrote: > All, > > I have a Sonly Clie TJ-37 and I'm having problems getting it to > communicate with Gnome Pilot.
