I see, thanks. So I need to grab them and start talking on the link to keep it alive. I see a bunch of /dev/usbdevN.M_ep[08][01] files. N depends on the socket, I think, and M increments, so it's a bit unpredictable. The files are owned by root, and nothing seems to start up to take care of them. Who would normally do that? Also I see like 5 of those files, and no clue which one to use. It used to be, that /dev/ttyUSB[01] was created, and the one to use was 0. I would just run pilot-xfer at the appropriate moment. I could still do that, if the files were owned by me. It seems like I could change the files in /etc/udev, but they all say not to change them! On Tue, 2008-02-19 at 09:28 -0600, Mikkel L.
