Hello all, Has something changed in release-6.0 that affects usb communication with a palm/zire? Here is what I have done from 5.2.1-5.4 to get my zire to sync with Jpilot: 1. add to my kernel: device ucom device uvisor 2. Add to /etc/defaults/devfs.rules: [devfsrules_palm=100] add path 'ucom*' group operator mode 0666 3. Add to /etc/rc.conf devfs_enable="YES" devfs_system_ruleset="devfsrules_palm" I do all this on my new 6.0 machine. When I hit the sync button on zire, I get the expected dmesg output (detecting the palm device), but there is no /dev/ucom0 device in /dev. Why? Does anybody know what I need to do or can you point me to the docs that will explain this to me? Thanks a bunch, DW
