Cool. That told me where to look on how Ubuntu is auto-recognizing it :).

Ubuntu doesn't have the odd USB device requirement, but has the rest of
that udev rule line.

I was able to get a partial backup ( forgot to exclude Blazer, so it
crashed at the same place again ).

I tried as root today, but my user account should be the same as
/dev/ttyUSB1 is cw for group dialout and my account is in the dialout
group.

I don't have /etc/security/console.perms, but since it's all matching up,
I should be fine.

I tried removing the visor and usbserial kernel modules to see if that
would reset whatever's hanging on the palm connection. No dice :(. I'm not
rebooting every time I want to try to sync this puppy.

The device manager sees the palm popping in and out as the device tries to
hotsync and as it gives up.

I see that page helped Alan.

ciao,
