[coldsync-hackers] m500 usb cradle problems

[Andreas Leitner <nozone@sbox.tugraz.at>]

Hi,

I am having troubles getting my new Palm m500 to work using Debian Linux
(unstable).

When I press the hotsync button I get the following in
/var/log/messages:
--
Jan 23 20:58:37 wien kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1,

Which seems like everything works fine, but then I do:
--
al@wien:~$ coldsync -p /dev/ttyUSB1        
Please press the HotSync button.

And nothing happens. I have read through newsgroup archives,
mailinglists and web-sites, but could not find a solution to my problem.

Can anybody shed some light on this problem?


tia,
Andreas
