I have a Palm Pilot Tungsten C which is a USB device. I have "visor" according to "lsmod". I have looed at lsusb and it is not seen. I suspect a /dev naming problem. I have written a /etc/udev/rules.d file and plugged it in. Problem is lsub and hwinfo --usb do not see it. Has anyone on the list got a similar one to work? Use the pilot-link packages to talk to the device, it should be able to find it just fine. If you have problems, ask on the pilot-link lists, they can hep out out. Hope this helps, Pilot-link is already installed according to "zypper in pilot-link". And visor is up but the device is still not found. I even tried a different kernel to check if visor was a problem The Palm Pilot / pilot-link support is very buggy and version specific (version of the Palm device an Palm OS). If you simply want to export data [and not repeatedly sync] it is easier to use one of the USB volume managers or on-device file managers to export the DBA files and extract

I don't know how helpful the pilot-link list will be; I was there for a long time and when I left it was essentially moribund.
Every thing used to work 10.# back. I lost my home made udev rules file. Also pilot-link (as long as usb was specified) it always worked and jpilot was a bit tricky spotting the devices but it did work.
I started on that back when it was download only and USB was still /dev/ttyUSB#. All of the headaches started about the time udev/rules started.
Kernel device like ttyUSB# names never changed with udev. They always have been defined, and still are defined by the kernel. Udev only created symlinks for pilot devices in the past, but that approach did not work in too many cases, so we dropped it, and let a program find out which port to use, instead of a expecting a fixed name in /dev.
