Hi!

I'm not sure what happens here. On Fedora 37 I can't sync my Palm TX
with jPilot.

All I get ist:


Syncing on device usb:
Press the HotSync button now


pi_bind error: usb: No such file or directory
Check your sync port and settings
Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_BIND
Finished.

I'm having an udev rule which creates "/dev/pilot" when I'm connecting
my Palm TX:

[root@odyssey ~]# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-tx.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0830", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0061",
SYMLINK+="pilot"

Even pilot-xfer can't connect to the USB port:

pilot-xfer --port usb: -l
Unable to bind to port: usb:
Please use --help for more information

Any idea what might be wrong here?

jPilot version is 1.8.2 from the Fedora repos.

Hi,

I am not sure if you need to be in the dialout group in Fedora. You can
try adding yourself to that and logging out and back in.

Hmmm, I tried this, too. Unfortunately it didn't change anything. Even
when jPilot is running as root.

Fedora 37 is running Kernel 6.x - maybe something changed with the USB
pseudo device?
