[coldsync-hackers] Can't open USB device with Palm Zire



When I run coldsync using initialization mode, the program stalls on
"Please press the HotSync button" and then I get "Can't open USB
device". I have tried calling coldsync before pressing the HotSync
button and then after pressing the button. In both cases, this is
the actual output:

  # coldsync -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -t libusb -v -v -v -mI
  Please press the HotSync button.
  pconn_libusb_open: Can't open USB device.
  Error: Can't open connection.

coldsync is installed from coldsync_3.0.pre4.cvs20040225-1_i386.deb on
Debian Sarge. This is the actual version information:

  # coldsync -V
  coldsync version 3.0-pre4.
  ColdSync homepage at http://www.coldsync.org
  Compile-type options:
      WITH_LIBUSB: USB (libusb) support.
      HAVE_STRCASECMP, HAVE_STRNCASECMP: strings are compared without
      regard to case, whenever possible.

      Default global configuration file: /etc/coldsync/coldsync.conf

My Zire is the model with a Motorola Dragonball EZ 16MHz processor
running Palm OS Version 4.1.2.
