As described in README.usb, some handhelds require newer versions of the kernel. Your kernel should be the version indicated in the tables here or a more-recent kernel version than those listed.
If you add data (such as new models, or vendor/product ids) to these tables, please send it to the pilot-link-devel list so it can be added to the plain text listing too.
** USB-to-Serial Adapters **
Prolific Technologies usb-to-serial adapter works with Linux, using the vendor/product ID of 067b/2303, and works with the pl2303 driver in Linux.
Untested on FreeBSD at this point.
Keyspan USA-19QW, works with Mac OS X 10.1.5 and Linux
**Footnotes**
The Palm M130 device does not support Network Hotsync in any capacity. Someone did actually hack it to allow Network HotSync to work. Follow the procedure below if you’re daring.
- Extract the files "HotSync.prc" and "HotSync enUS.prc" from your M505 and save them to your HD as "HotSyn2.prc" and "HotSyn2 enUS.prc" (note the space).
- Using a hex editor, change all occurrances of the string “sync” to “syn2”, and “Sync” to “Syn2” in both files. (NOTE: earlier revision changed “sync” to “sync2” — this would likely corrupt the file)
- Change the byte at offset 0x21 to 0x09 in both files.
