Linux Hates my Palm Pre

February 13th, 2010

For the life of me, I can not get my desktop Linux to recognize (and thus charge or give filesystem access to) my Palm Pre. Apparently no one else on the Internet has this problem.

I've tried enabling low level usb debugging in the kernel, and I can see when I plug the device in:

usb 7-5.1.3: no configuration chosen from 1 choice
 

Gentoo, Saslauthd And Sasldb

Make sure you edit /etc/conf.d/saslauthd and change:

SASLAUTHD_OPTS="${SASLAUTHD_OPTS} -a pam"

to

SASLAUTHD_OPTS="${SASLAUTHD_OPTS} -a sasldb"
