Ms.Kai Complete details. Bug #108512, first reported on 2007-04-2 This is the bug I am talking about, and it is occurring on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 05-25-2008.
This is on a fresh install of the Hardy Heron final release with all upgrades. I'm connecting my Sony Clie to my computer via cradle and usb. In Hardy the gnome-pilot device settings tried: /dev/pilot /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1 /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1. In Hardy I get no connection when I press the sync button on the cradle (although the info appears in System->Preferences->Hardware Manager just fine). Instead, I receive the following error dialog: "Failed to connect using device `cradle', on port `/dev/ttyUSB0'. Check your configuration, as you requested old-style usbserial `ttyUSB' syncing, but do not have the usbserial `visor' kernel module loaded. You may need to select a `usb:' device." I can see in gnome-pilot->Devices->Edit->Device where I can select "usb:", but using this setting fails to make any connection at all. Before starting gnome-pilot, open a terminal and type: sudo modprobe visor to load the visor module. Then start gnome-pilot and initiate sync from the cradle, as usual, and everything should work (it did for me). done -- Fatal error on Palm during synchronization with Evolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71837 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
