This is an update from a previous post on Gutsy.
Sync-ing the Palm LifeDrive requires less work than previously reported, and this is a fresh Ubuntu install on a new computer.
Just run sudo modprobe visor (you can add the visor module at the end of /etc/modules to make it permanent) and run the wisard:
Then choose the following settings for gPilotD sync:
The sync should go when hitting the button on the LifeDrive cradle.
Mounting the drive still does not work..
Edit 090225: The mount bug seems solved with Jaunty. Unfortunately, I cannot confirm. My Palm Lifedrive died a month ago, after 4 years of daily use.
