Freebsd 6.1 and Palm Tungsten C

[Viktorija]

Hi!

Thanks for Your help!
I tried Your advice, but i'm in stock anyway.
Because all devices are created when i press Palm Sync. Except of course /dev/ucom0, which now is replaced by /dev/cua0 in 6.+ version fbsd.
But when i press sync and run command which you have mentioned before, nothing happens...
i see only 
    Listening to port: /dev/cuaU0 
    
    Please press teh HotSync button now....

and nothing... after a few minutes palm says: unable to connect with device and that's all...
i have googled, but didn't find any resolution, except same questions without any answers...
it's seems - somewhere it's working and somewhere not...

i don't know what else i can do...

Best Regards,
Victoria
