Hi well i am using 2.4.1... but are you using gnome-pilot. when I try to config it using control center, it just stuck there even though I press the hotsync botton before running the config (you know the config that get the username and other things from the visor)
in the /proc/bus/usb/device, I did see the visor entry when I press the hotsync botton. And in fact, jpilot works too.. but it just that I wanna use gnome-pilot Edwin Lau On Fri, 23 Feb 2001 12:30:44 Nate Amsden wrote: > what kernel are you using? i have been using usb with my visor deluxe > for a long > time with very little trouble. be sure to follow the directions on > http://www.calvin.edu/~rvbijl39/visor/visor-2.html > > there is a newer FAQ but i used the old one(above) last time and it > seems > to work fine. > > nate > > Chun Kit Edwin Lau wrote: > > > > thanx.. the reason I am asking this is that I want my Visor Deluxe work > > under Debian using gnome pilot.. but I have no luck with compile in > visor > > code, or modules. and I just wondering if it has anything to do with > > hotplug and devfsd > > > > Edwin lau > > On Thu, 22 Feb 2001 18:59:48 Ethan Benson wrote: > > > On Thu, Feb 22, 2001 at 01:47:37PM -0500, Chun Kit Edwin Lau wrote: > > > > Hi everyone, > > > > > > > > It is strictly speaking not a Debian question, but since I am > > > using > > > > Debian... please help!!
