Re: z22 F7 problem

Rene,

Another question for you: Did you have to create a special udev rule file?  I did, but mine of course isn't completely working (works first sync attempt after boot, but not subsequent sync attempts).  I put my rule into  /etc/udev/rules.d/10-custom.rules, and it contains just this one line:

BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="Palm Handheld*", KERNEL=="ttyUSB[13579]", SYMLINK+="pilot", MODE="0666"


Oh and I had to add my user to the "uucp" UNIX group, as there is something that causes those /dev files to be be owned by root and group of uucp.

So who should we ask for help? The gnome-pilot folks? the F7 folks? Redhat? palm? Where's the wiz that can help us?

 

BTW, I have spent the whole morning trying to get my Z22 to talk to jpilot (FC7)  (I could live with jpilot if I'd have to); no luck either.

Same udevd version on my F7 box.  My kernel is a bit later than yours:

Linux ... 2.6.22.5-76.fc7 #1 SMP Thu Aug 30 13:08:59 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm seeing similar anomalies on my syncing of my Treo 650. The first time it works, but stops working subsequent times.  Only will work again upon a reboot (tried logging completely out of the GNOME desktop and back in again but that did not fix the problem).

Tom,

Thanks for getting back to me:

here's the info you're asking for:

Same for me here, it was not FC7, but is was also "some" upgrade that
made it stop working, I suspect a kernel upgrade where the usb timing
has changed...
May I ask you what kernel you are using, and what the version of udev
is?

Same here again, I will keep trying, but for the moment I do have no
idea what to try anymore...

Kind regards,
