USB Palm sync with Evo

[lance raymond]

Morning all, 1st post to this group, not sure if it's a rhn-users or FC
post (since I am using FC4 I assume this one).

So I am using a Treo600 smartphone which I want to sync with Evolution
and need some assistance.  Basically it will be connected via USB to a
Dell inspiron 300m.  When connected and during a sync attempt, a lsusb
reveals the device at:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 082d:0300 Treo Smartphone .... 

So I know the hardware is recognized, but looking at
gpilotd-control-applet I am a little lost.  The device options
are /dev/pilot, then /dev/ttyS0 - S5 none of which are my USB devices
(although the USB radio is selected.)  

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices also reveals:

T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#=  6 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=082d ProdID=0300 Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=Palm, Inc.
S:  Product=Palm Handheld
S:  SerialNumber=PalmSN12345678
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=  2mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 4 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=visor
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms

So it looks like hardware wise I am fine, and I assume I need to just
create /dev/pilot (which doesnt exist) to symlink to something on the
USB side... but what?  Or ... am I completely lost in this?  Read up on
jpilot, pilot-link, and all sorts of other apps, but want to try to keep
the sync with evo and start with this maillist for help 1st.

Thanks all.

Lance
