how long inbetween you hitting the button on the visor to you starting
the program to transfer? i would wait about 2-3 seconds otherwise it
may not come up.
also check to be sure your USB does not have any IRQ conflicts or anything,
on my thinkpad t20 I cannot sync my visor if my sound driver modules
are loaded since for some reason they use the same IRQ(USB mouse works
though).
i usually use raw pilot-xfer. I remmeber having to use coldsync when
i first got my visor about 2 years ago, but haven't had to use it
for a real long time. also of course be sure you have read/write
access to the ttyUSB device.
also try both ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1, for me even though the visor shows
up on both ports when it connects, only one of the 2 ports work
(I think it was USB1 but its been a while).
you can also try jpilot, when i first started using my visor
2 years ago i used it and in it there was an option to set the
baud rate, only a couple baud rates worked for me the rest did
not.
all my systems are 2.2.19, so if your using 2.4.x. the issues may
be totally different .......!
good luck!!
