Hey Group; I have been looking for the port for my Palm. It is a USB port and I assume that it is /dev/usb/ttyUSB#. No luck so far. The BAUD rate is set the same. Also this worked on this same system with SuSE 9.0 I have comfirmed that it is on major number 180 but that is about all I can find using /proc, hwinfo and/or lsusb. All of them find and/or show the device. However, USB will not state which minor number it is or at least I have not found it to do so. Any one know of a trick to find the device on a USB port I have tried ttyUSB[0-5] with not luck. -- 73 de Donn Washburn __" http://www.hal-pc.org/~n5xwb " Ham Callsign N5XWB / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 307 Savoy St. / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / Sugar Land, TX 77478 /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ LL# 1.281.242.3256 Dump Microsoft Software - Stop virus email Email: n5xwb@hal-pc.org " http://counter.li.org " #279316

Any one know of a trick to find the device on a USB port I have tried ttyUSB[0-5] with not luck. Unfortunately, jpilot is not on the SuSE 9.2 CDs, and I have not had the time to buld some of the dependencies, but.... I am using kpilot. Kpilot automatically detects the port. Sometimes the palm uses /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 and sometimes it uses /dev/ttyUSB2 and /dev/ttyUSB3.
On SuSE 9.1, I configured it to use /dev/ttyUSB0. Try leaving the port blank
and see if it auto detects.

Why is there such a rash of reports of lacking software of late??? I loaded up jpilot on 9.2 when I installed it. It's there all right.... I installed from DVD... are things like jpilot missing from the CD's? If so, SuSE is short changing its users...
