Not really. While "If I load the pilot-link and jpilot packages and
modprobe visor and use ttyUSB1 then I can sync to jpilot" - but I don't
want to use the jpilot PIM. Gnome-pilot sees the PDA and the sync acts
like it is going to work (the Clie makes the sync sound) but gnome-pilot
then immediately fails and pops up a dialog box that reads "Device error
on cradle (/dev/pilot) Caught unhandled port error".

Anyway, even if I could sync to ttyUSB1, I really would like to
understand why "sub:" will not work i it should!

If I can solve this I plan on putting my Windows box to sleep (RIP).
Being able to use my Pal Pilot is a MUST (it is my substitute brain) for
making the final switch to 100% Linux after years of waiting for the
Linux desktop to get to a level of usability that suited my needs.
Ubuntu is "so close" but things like this bug are stopping it from
reaching the finish line for me. I really want to switch!
