Hi, we had to change from an Palm V to a zire31,because the Palm started to fall apart. Before I made as usually an HotSync with our Linux-Box, SuSE 9.0 +KDE 3.3.2. The Palm has an serial connection.All ok When I startet to make an HotSync with the zire -usb- I got every time the message : no connection found. I didn`t find anything to change to make it work Hwinfo says: <b>Version:</b> KPilot 4.4.6 <b>Version:</b> pilot-link 0.11.8 <b>Version:</b> KDE 3.3.2 Level "a" <b>Version:</b> Qt 3.3.3 <qt><B>HotSync-Protokoll</B></qt> <b>15:10:45</b> KPilot D�on wird gestartet... <b>15:10:46</b> Der Status des D�ons ist "l�ft nicht" <b>15:10:47</b> Versuch das Ger� /dev/pilot zu �fnen... <b>15:10:47</b> <i>Ger� konnte nicht ge�fnet werden: /dev/pilot (wird erneut versucht)</i> I did : modprobe visor vendor=0x0830 product=0x0061 no error-messages.
