I tried coldsync and it didnt work.  It wouldnt recognize the palm
pilot.  I have the visor module loaded, but its not working.  I am kinda
stuck on this one.  According to everything I have read something should
be working.  I have the stuff linked to /dev/pilot and /dev/palm, but it
is not working at all.  Any help yould be apreaciated.  Thanks
