I don't get a 1:1 correspondence to what you wrote, impressive as it is.

In kern.log, I see (when I connect the TREO tot the cable):

When I hit the Hot Sync button, I get

When I then try

pilot-dlpsh -p /dev/ttyUSB1

I get

   ERROR: Specify exactly one of -c or -i

I'm using Xubuntu 7.04

Thanks.
