Hello,
I thought the USB MFC was a good time to try again synchronizing my PDA.
It is a Sony Clié PEG-SJ22 running PalmOS 4.1. I'm trying to access it
using the uvisor driver (1.7.2.9 2004/04/04) and coldsync (2.2.5 from
ports) using a setup which works under Linux (Debian Sarge with 2.4 and
2.6 kernels) but, to be clear, never did with FreeBSD (STABLE). And I'm
afraid it still doesn't with 4.10-BETA.
It goes like this: first I tap Hotsync on the Clié, so that it attaches
itself as a USB device, then either usbd takes over or I start coldsync
manually. Here is an extract from /var/log/messages:
Apr 11 21:42:51 krakatoa /kernel: ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2
Apr 11 21:42:51 krakatoa /kernel: ucom0: Palm, Inc. Palm Handheld, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 2
Apr 11 21:43:52 krakatoa /kernel: ucom0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 2) disconnected
Apr 11 21:43:52 krakatoa /kernel: ucom0: detached
For usbd, with the following in /etc/usbd.conf:
device "Sony Clie"
devname "ucom[0-9]+"
vendor 0x054c
product 0x0066
attach "/usr/local/bin/coldsync -md -p /dev/${DEVNAME} -t usb"
I get these messages:

And if I try coldsync manually:
krakatoa ~ % coldsync -v
Please press the HotSync button.
netsync_read: read: Input/output error
Error: Can't connect to Palm.
tcdrain: Input/output error
The error messages are displayed as the device detaches; coldsync hangs
at "press the HotSync button", which I can't do since I don't have an
external cradle and the HotSync application on the Clié won't let me tap
the icon while it's trying to connect. And if I try to start coldsync
before the HotSync, it exits right away with:
krakatoa ~ % coldsync -v
Error: Can't open "/dev/ucom0".
open: Device not configured
Error: Can't open connection.
The /usr/local/etc/palms file seems correct, and my .coldsyncrc reads:
listen serial {
protocol: simple;
device: /dev/ucom0;
}
pda "skrode" {
snum: <serial#>
directory: /home/ware/.palm;
username: "skrode";
userid: <uid>;
default;
}
This is the same file as with Linux (except "device: /dev/ttyUSB1;"),
but I tried many combinations ("listen usb" instead of "listen serial",
"protocol: net" instead of "protocol: simple", setting the speed...)
and the end result is the same, although the error messages do change
sometimes. More information on request.
The pilot-xfer program has exactly the same behavior ("Please press the
HotSync button now...") except that it doesn't exit when the Clié times
out and detaches.
This happens both with the GENERIC kernel and a customized one, either
with "device ucom" and "device uvisor", or loading them as modules.
This is all with last Friday's STABLE; I believe I had tried with 5.1
or 5.2 in January, without success, but I don't have a CURRENT machine
at hand to check now.
Should I try something else? Any idea to make it work?
Thanks,
Cedric Ware.
