I've tried to use /dev/ttyACM0 and /dev/ttyACM1 to sync my SE K608i over
USB without success.
When I specify one of these as the IrMC cable "other device", the phone
wakes up with a "synchronizing" message. The multisync status reads
"Getting first plugin changes...". After approximately 5 minutes, the
phone reports "session failed" and multisync's IrMC log records
"synchronization of 8 records succeeded". However, nothing is written
by the backup plugin (which is the second plugin in my pair). After
this, multisync will not connect to the phone again (reporting a
"connection error"), until I replug the USB cable - I assume this is
because the modem was left in an intermediate state.
Should I attempt to troubleshoot this further, or am I doing something
that isn't supported by multisync? If the former, how best to gather
more information what is going wrong?
Jason.
