Yeah, I can get coldsync to work correctly on my machine. I sorta figure=
d out=20
the problem. If I launch pilot-link from the usbd.conf it will work for =
a=20
few read/writes, but then it can't read anymore and the Visor times out.
The output created by syslogd when I inserted output statements:
