Florin, Open a terminal window and run the following command: tail -f /var/log/messages Then press the hotsync button on the PDA and see what shows up in the output of the above tail command. If the PC and the PDA are talking, you will see output in the terminal which will hopefully point you to the correct /dev/???. Otherwise, you will have to figure out what is causing the PDA and PC to not talk to each other. After you manually load the visor module, run the following to verify it is loaded properly: lsmod | grep visor Hope this isn't anything you have already done in your quest to troubleshoot. Wishing you health! Faisal -- Faisal Islam Linux. The choice of the thinking generation.
