The visor.rules should be sufficient and is what I am using. The
setting of permissions is then handled by /etc/security/console.perms
I think the problem may be that console.perms has
<console> 0600 <pilot> 0660 root.uucp
If you logged in through a graphical prompt (gdm or whatever) try
changing that line to
<xconsole> 0600 <pilot> 0660 root.uucp
Normail operation should be :
* plug in pilot device via usb
* start hotsync on device
* device is detected and stuff is printed in /var/log/messages
* /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/tty/USB0 and /dev/pilot are created and are owned
by currently logged in user and with permissions 600
