Anybody have garmintools working?
in [Slackware]
|
From: root on 14 Dec 2008 08:06 I am running Slack 12.1 and am trying to get garmintools 0.9 to run. It makes OK, but when I run garmin_get_info it doesn't see the device. I can't access ttyUSB0 either. I have tried enabling every USB option that I could think might affect the problem, but no. Any ideas? Thanks.

Try to preset "/dev/ttyUSB0" (and perhaps some other devices) in /lib/udev/devices Viele Gruesse Helmut "Ubuntu" - an African word, meaning "Slackware is too hard for me".

I installed libusb, but lsusb always gives me nothing. I don't think I can enable anything else in the USB kernel options. I'm not using the kernel configuration that came with Slack, I trimmed out the stuff I didn't want. Thanks for responding.

Here is what an ls -l shows me: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jul 8 03:50 core -> /proc/kcore lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Jul 8 03:50 fd -> /proc/self/fd/ prw------- 1 root root 0 Nov 20 2005 initctl| crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 20 2005 null crw-rw---- 1 root root 108, 0 Nov 20 2005 ppp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jul 8 03:50 stderr -> /proc/self/fd/2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jul 8 03:50 stdin -> /proc/self/fd/0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jul 8 03:50 stdout -> /proc/self/fd/1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 5 Nov 20 2005 zero Should there be some entries defining usb devices? If so, what would they be Thanks for responding. |
