gpsbabel -i mtk,erase=0 -f /dev/ttyUSB0 -o mtkbin -F log.bin works for me.
According to
http://www.gpsbabel.org/os/Linux_Hotplug.html
using the garmin kernel module is not recommended. This is also what Robert
Lipe
=> It may be a problem of libusb usage
I don't think people will care about such an argument, when they suddently notice that their favorite applications no longer work. I simply don't understand why we introduced this compatibility layer, when we need to ship both library versions anyway. I see only regressions and no benefits at all here. I also didn't see any FATE request or bugreport to introduce such a compatibility layer instead of keeping the old implementation as it is (working). Also libusb 1.0 is still considered BETA.
As you have beta4, I guess that you have latest version of libusb-compat:
rpm -q --changelog libusb-0_1-4 | grep -A4 meissner@suse.de * Wed Oct 08 2008 meissner@suse.de - handle case where usb_init() failed (ctx NULL), so we do not crash. bnc#432129 - added more NULL ptr checks, where older libusb were more graceful and did not crash. bnc#432129
Sure I have including this change * Properly obsolete old implementation of the library (bnc#437768). I even builded every older versions of this package and rebuilded gpsbabel against it.
