Hi!
I have following problem. I have Palm Tungsten C and FreeBSD 6.1 on my laptop.
I'm trying to synhronize my palm with freebsd, but without any success. What
i did:
in kernel added devices:
ucom and uvisor.
in usbd.conf:
device "Palm Handheld"
devname "ucom[0-9]+"
vendor 0x0830
product 0x0060
release 0x0100
attach "ln -fs /dev/ucom0 /dev/pilot; chmod 666 /dev/ucom0"
When i press sync button on palm, i see in messages:
Feb 19 02:50:29 blue kernel: ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00,
addr 2
And in /dev directory i get cuaU0 and ttyU0, but not ucom0.
Ok, i saw in one message, that now ttyU0 should be used instead of ucom0, but
when i'm trying:
pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyU0 -i palm/softs/Tube/Tube2.prc
nothing happens...
What i'm doing wrong?
Why ucom0 doesn't exist?
Maybe someone got similar problems?
Thank You!
Victoria

I have used pilot-xfer as well as KPilot/Kontact. I did not add any entries in usbd.conf, but I did experiment with devfs.rules for setting the permissions. Jim
Hello Victoria,
I also have a Tungsten C that I am using with FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE
without any problems.
I *do not* have the entries that you have in my usbd.conf. In fact, I
have not touched usbd.conf. However, I have the following entries added to
/etc/devd.conf:
attach 10 {
device-name "ucom0";
action "chmod 0666 /dev/cuaU0";
};
To backup my palm, I do the following:
1. kldload uvisor
2. Press the sync button on my Tungsten C cradle.
3. Run the following command:
pilot-xfer -p /dev/cuaU0 -b /home/someone/palm_bkup
Try commenting out the entries in your usbd.conf file and add the
entries that I have in my devd.conf file and see if it works for you.
regards,
joseph
