I hooked my serial cradel for my brand new Visor Platinum up to my serial port. I told my system to use /dev/ttyS1. irq 3 is clean and the proper serial port is open. setserial /dev/ttyS1 reveals:

bash$ setserial /dev/ttyS1
/dev/ttyS1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3

When I try to sync or something, the proper io ports and IRQs are used. I have tried this in gpilot, jpilot, and kpilot. The perms on /dev/ttyS1 are 666 with the owner being root and group being tty. My user is in the tty group.

Hmm, are you sure that Visor uses the same protocols as the Palm Pilots? All that stuff was written for the Pilots, and works flawlessly here on mine. Ray
