Hello, I have a funny situation. I created a new user account just to test things out. On that test-user account, I'm able to sync my PDA by doing the following: 1) Enter "sudo modprobe visor" in terminal. 2) Press Sync on Sony PDA. 3) Press Sync on Jpilot. I then hear the twaddle dee sound. Here is what "$ tail -f /var/log/messages" gives. Before anything else: Jun 28 17:12:04 jc-amd kernel: [ 2006.112000] [fglrx] free Inv = 134217728 Jun 28 17:12:04 jc-amd kernel: [ 2006.112000] [fglrx] max single Inv = 134217728 Jun 28 17:12:04 jc-amd kernel: [ 2006.112000] [fglrx] total TIM = 0 Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): starting (version 2.18.0.1), pid 7095 user 'clie6' Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" to a read-only configuration source at position 0 Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readwrite:/home/clie6/.gconf" to a writable configuration source at position 1 Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 2 Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/debian.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 3 Jun 28 17:12:15 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 4 Jun 28 17:12:16 jc-amd gconfd (clie6-7095): Resolved address "xml:readwrite:/home/clie6/.gconf" to a writable configuration source at position 0 AFter pressing Sync on Sony PDA: Jun 28 17:15:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 2200.684000] usb 1-4: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 17 Jun 28 17:15:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 2200.892000] usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jun 28 17:15:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 2200.896000 ] visor 1-4:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Jun 28 17:15:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 2200.896000] usb 1-4: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Jun 28 17:15:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 2200.896000 ] usb 1-4: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1 After pressing sync on jpilot: Jun 28 17:15:30 jc-amd kernel: [ 2212.764000] usb 1-4: USB disconnect, address 17 Jun 28 17:15:30 jc-amd kernel: [ 2212.764000] visor ttyUSB0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 Jun 28 17:15:30 jc-amd kernel: [ 2212.764000] visor ttyUSB1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1 Jun 28 17:15:30 jc-amd kernel: [ 2212.764000] visor 1-4:1.0: device disconnected ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On my main acccount jc at jc-amd:~$ tail -f /var/log/messages Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): starting (version 2.18.0.1), pid 5085 user 'jc' Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" to a read-only configuration source at position 0 Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readwrite:/home/jeff/.gconf" to a writable configuration source at position 1 Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 2 Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/debian.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 3 Jun 28 17:19:57 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 4 Jun 28 17:20:02 jc-amd gconfd (jeff-5085): Resolved address "xml:readwrite:/home/jeff/.gconf" to a writable configuration source at position 0 Jun 28 17:20:17 jc-amd kernel: [ 139.064000] usb 1-4: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 Jun 28 17:20:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 139.276000] usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jun 28 17:21:18 jc-amd kernel: [ 199.744000] usb 1-4: USB disconnect, address 2 After I press the sync button on the PDA: Jun 28 17:26:01 jc-amd kernel: [ 482.384000] usb 1-4: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3 Jun 28 17:26:01 jc-amd kernel: [ 482.592000] usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jun 28 17:26:01 jc-amd kernel: [ 482.596000] visor 1-4:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter detected Jun 28 17:26:01 jc-amd kernel: [ 482.596000] usb 1-4: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Jun 28 17:26:01 jc-amd kernel: [ 482.596000] usb 1-4: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1 When I press the sync button on Jpilot: Nothing happens! How come in my main account, though PDA is connecting to my computer, Jpilot does not seem to connect with the computer/PDA? I've tried changing Jpilot/File/Preferences/Settings Tab/Serial Port from the default of [usb:] to [ttyUSB1] and [ttyUSB1:] but it just makes things worse.(doesn't help). Please help me.
