Gene,

I was able to get it to work with RH 7.2. The one issue that I ran into
was that you had to push the hot sync button and then very quickly press
the jpilot sync button.

Subject: [ale] Handspring/USB with Linux

I'm trying to get my Handspring visor to sync under linux with a USB 
cable.  I've never used any USB devices under linux before.  I'm not 
real sure how to see if USB is working properly.

I'm running RH 7.1 (2.4.2-2).

I'm trying jpilot, but I haven't gotten it sync successfuly.  And afer 
looking at the jpilot web page, it looks like it only does serial not 
usb.  I do have a serial cradle also, just not with me now.

Anyone know of a palm package that works with USB?

Thanks,

Gene
