Handspring treo 90 "not claimed by any driver"

[Constantinos Antoniou <costas alum mit edu>]

Hello,

this is technically not a gnome-pilot question, but since pilot-link is
a prerequisite, I guess it is not totally inappropriate.

I have compiled and installed pilot-link 0.11.4 without any problem, and
before proceeding I guess it is a good idea to see that this at least
works with my device (Handspring Treo 90).

Unfortunately what I get is (from /var/log/messages):

Sep 23 15:43:21 nefeli kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1,

The system is a Compaq Presario 1700T running Redhat 7.3 with kernel
2.4.19.

It appears to see the machine, but it can not associate it with a module
(visor???). Any ideas/directions?

[BTW, the treo syncs just fine with win2k running in vmware under the
same linux installation, which leads me to believe that things are not
totally broken...].

Thanks in advance,

Costas
