(See also bug 187410, where --enable-libusb was previously requested.) Thanks. --enable-libusb is just added. I plan to work on pilot-link soon so there should be some improvement shortly. Thanks. I'll attempt to figure out what udev magic is necessary to get the /dev/bus/usb devices files owned by the console user for Palm devices. Although the SPEC file now uses --enable-libusb, the actual packages in Fedora Development don't have native USB support. Most likely, the libusb-devel package isn't installed on the build system. (You need both use --enable-libusb and have libusb-devel installed in order to get native USB support.) Per doc/README.libusb, if you don't see this exact line in the ./configure summary page: Direct USB support...... : yes, libusb ...then you don't have native USB support. To test for native USB support at runtime, run: $ pilot-xfer -p usb: -l You should see: Listening for incoming connection on usb:... If you receive an error about not being able to bind to "usb:", then you don't have native USB support. I'm second to this request. Please, enable libusb support as soon as possible. Created attachment 159967 [details]
Fix BuildRequires to enable libusb support
Without BuildRequires: libusb-devel, libusb isn't really enabled. With the
spec patch applied, I can connect to a Treo 700p with "pilot-xfer -p usb:".
Anybody from Fedora support, could you please apply this patch and push updated version for testing? New kernel 2.6.22.1-33.fc7 fixes some USB problems appeared since 2.6.22.1-20.fc7 and now libusb seems to be working again. pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 was just build and pushed to testing branch. Created attachment 160141 [details] path for Sony Clie NR70 compatibility This patch is required for original pilot-link 0.12.2 to work with Sony Clie NR70. Bug report submitted also to http://bugs.pilot-link.org/view.php?id=1830 pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 does not work with Sony Clie NR70. I believe this version, like the original pilot-link 0.12.2, needs this patch: https:// bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=160141 Additional info: kernel-2.6.22.1-33.fc7 udev-113-7.fc7 However, please note, the maintainer of pilot-link still did not reply for my bug report. In fact, if I'm the only one who has this problem, this is not urgent, because I have applied this patch to the original pilot-link and copied libpisock libraries to /usr/lib to replace these files from Fedora package. After that pilot-* programs are working in my computer. So, I would wait the reply from maintainer of pilot-link to see if he accepts this patch or offers another resolution for this problem. pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 is properly linked with direct libusb support, yes. Thanks. Thanks Serguei Miridonov for your comment and patch, I will wait till upstream enclose this patch to upstream cvs. I can't reproduce your problem myself, so I think it would be better this way. The main problem (usb support) is solved, so I'm closing this bug.

Can you please go to bodhi and "push" the update from updates-testing to updates (i.e. stable)? This needs to be done manually, it's been sitting in updates-testing for almost 2 months: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/testing/F7/pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 comment #13 already indicated that it fixes the original bug and bodhi closes the bug automatically once it's pushed to updates, so I'm reopening until such time as it is pushed to updates. Thanks. Done. pilot-link-0.12.2-3.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
