I use my Palm Tungsten E to read books on. Therefore, I load it up with books a couple of times a year and that's the only time I plug it into my computer. I used kpilot to copy my books the last time I did this on Fedora Core 5, but tonight when I try the same thing with Fedora Core 6 I get this: 00:57:09 Starting the KPilot daemon ... 00:57:09 Daemon status is `not running' 00:57:09 Pilot device /dev/ttyUSB0 does not exist. Probably it is a USB device and will appear during a HotSync. 00:57:20 Next sync will copy Handheld data to PC. Please press the HotSync button. 00:57:20 Next HotSync will be: Copy Handheld to PC. Please press the HotSync button. 00:57:26 Device link ready. That's it until I hit cancel on my Palm, when I get this: 00:58:49 Unable to read system information from Pilot Here is the relevant /var/log/messages entries: Dec 31 00:56:56 jeff kernel: visor ttyUSB0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 Dec 31 00:56:56 jeff kernel: visor ttyUSB1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1 Dec 31 00:57:25 jeff kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd a nd address 4 Dec 31 00:57:25 jeff kernel: usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Dec 31 00:57:25 jeff kernel: visor 1-2:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Dec 31 00:57:25 jeff kernel: usb 1-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now a ttached to ttyUSB0 Dec 31 00:57:25 jeff kernel: usb 1-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now a ttached to ttyUSB1 Dec 31 00:58:49 jeff kernel: usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 4 Dec 31 00:58:49 jeff kernel: visor 1-2:1.0: device disconnected -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
