Re: Can't get Zire72s to work

[Matt Davey <mcdavey mrao cam ac uk>]

Just an idea:

http://www.pilot-link.org/node/175

The writer reports success with the Zire 72 by pressing hotsync,
cancelling after 3 secs, and pressing hotsync again.

If that doesn't work, please send in the usual diagnostics:
	o start gpilotd in a console and capture the messages
	o do dmesg and capture the visor module/usb messages
	o try using 'pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l' and
	    'pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -b /tmp/mydir'
	  and see if that works error-free.
	o report the error messages from gnome-pilot:
	  is it timing out or just never seeing a sync start?
