Created attachment 577750 [details] strace of "pilot-dlpsh -p usb: -c user" Description of problem: pilot-link utilities can no longer communicate with my Palm Centro via the usb: device.

Push sync button on Palm. Actual results: A connection is seen from the usb device, but a timeout occurs reading the data. Additional info: A sample run of the pilot-dlpsh utility: % pilot-dlpsh -p usb: -c user Listening for incoming connection on usb:... connected! Error read system info on usb:
My comment in bug 449968 comment 36 applies here too: This may just be broken upstream (i.e. in pilot-link itself), and since upstream is more or less dormant and no new PalmOS 5.x devices are in production any longer, so I suspect that this bug may never be fixed, except by somebody willing to debug it right down to the device level (which is well beyond me as packager). Although I hope I'm wrong: perhaps the new maintainer, Peter Schiffer, may have some ideas (I've ceased using my old Palm Treo, so I'm not actively doing any testing, so may eventually drop my co-maintainership).
Sean, I tried to reproduce this with different phone, but with no luck. I am going to close this bug as CANTFIX, based on Alex's comment. The upstream is gone and this kind of HW is getting old. peter
I retried with the latest FC15 kernel (2.6.43.5-2) and this problem has gone away.
Thanks for update Sean. I am changing closed status to CURRENTRELEASE.
