#162 Yakumo delta 300 GPS 2L not connecting
Hello,
I am using debian lenny and tried to sync with my WinCE Yakumo delta 300 GPS 2L device. The device is still using Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition. Everything is fine, until the device is lugged in, Popup on PPC starts, that connection will start and stops after a few seconds. I have treid synce-serial, synce-hal in versions 0.11.1 and 0.12 following your setup script from your web page for win2003 devices.
It seems that this has something to do with hal devices and 4 endpoints usb devices. It seems that some values needed from HAL are stored in different UID HAL devices, so that requesting information from HAL sometimes gives NOVALUE to hal-odccm and others.
I'm using kernel 2.6.26 coming out from debian-lenny on a P4 i386 machine.
If you need more information, please ask me.

Is there any particular reason you think this because the device has 4 endpoints ? I'm not saying that's wrong, just checking.
Can you make sure synce-serial, odccm, vdccm are not installed. What version is synce-hal ? Make sure librapi2-tools is installed.
Edit /usr/lib/hal/hal-synce-serial, find the line that says LOG_LEVEL=3, change it to LOG_LEVEL=6
Make sure you don't have a firewall. Run iptables -L to make sure.
Plug in again, test with synce-pls.
After a bit of getting information, the 4 Point USB comes here:
I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 4 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=ipaq
#EPs = 4 means that the number of endpoints is 4
firewall is off. Checked with iptables -L
synce-hal is version 11.1 now.

Additional Comments:
#EPs = 4 means in my opinion, that we will have 4 entries in HAL.
Thsi 4 entries will be:
a.) usb_device_3340_e3a_noserial
b.) usb_device_3340_e3a_noserial_usbraw
c.) usb_device_3340_e3a_noserial_if0
d.) usb_device_3340_e3a_noserial_if0_serial_usb_4
It seems, that only the 4th entry is relevant for synCE, because we are connecting to a serial device.
Because of this I walked a little bit through the sources. I first tried to change the 0.11.1 version to keep debian versions on my PC. Point of interest was synce-device.c. I could not find any help so I just tried to recompile and install the package. Then reconnect the PDA.
Result:
Dec 30 15:29:45 winni hal-dccm[7752]: CRITICAL: main: failed to initialise hal context: (null): (null)
Walk into source main.c from synce-hal.
Seems to me, that setting of properties for the HAL was not succesfull, because i couldn't see in lshal output any settings from synce which should have been made in none of the 4 HAL Endpoints. Or are this settings only visible internally in synce-hal?
Hope, this will help you.
I'm not very familar to debugging in gdb, so if you need something, you should take me by the hand.
Thanx.
What we can see from the log you posted, is that pppd is invoked to bring up the connection, and control passes to hal-dccm. hal-dccm is then stuck waiting for the network interface, either because it wasn't brought up properly or has already gone down. It is hal-dccm that populates the hal device descriptions with synce specific stuff, which comes in the connection handshake with the device. You never get to that stage.
I think this is a driver issue, though i'm really not sure. This is a bit fiddly since the kernel sources keep changing, so I'll go through it exactly.
Make sure you have your kernel source installed. Get the ipaq module from svn at
https://synce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/synce/trunk/ipaq
In that ipaq module, remove ipaq.c, and replace it with the one from your kernel source, then apply the patch I've attached to this, and run make.
Copy the ipaq.ko in your /lib/modules/<kernel-version> directory somewhere safe, and replace it with the ipaq.ko we just built.
In /etc/modprobe.d, create a file called synce with the contents
options ipaq ttyUSB=1
then run rmmod ipaq
Try the device again. This isn't really my area, so I have no idea if my patch will work.
File Added: ipaq-new.diff
Can you also attach a verbose output of lsusb for the device.

It works!!!!!!!!!!!!111
Meanwhile I build 0.12 versions of debian packages, where can I upload this? (gforge.punktart.de??)
Thats excellent news. I think I might have an idea what is causing the increasing device number, but I need to think for a bit. Can I continue using you as a test case for a little while, and we'll try and get the kernel module fixed ?
Hi Mark,
of course you can. I'm on holiday til 11 jan. Then only work on weekends possible.
Hi,
I have made more exercises. Because i build 0.12 synce packages I had also to recompile msynctool and other stuff from opensync to get the plugins work. After a while of frustration the device is now syncing, but the sync process does not stop on the pda. Filecomparison works, the rest of it run into following repetative error (Very long list...)

Newly build packages for debian i386 can be uploaded.
Can we back up a step. Before you built 0.12, did everything work ok with the new driver ? Could you do synce-pls and synce-pstatus successfully ? Do these still work now you are using 0.12 ?
Hi Mark,
totally yes. Patch works with both versions. 0.11.1 from lenny originally packaged and updated packages for 0.12.
Hi,
I also have a very similar Pocket PC as Wolfgang (Medion MD95000) and problems with SynCE version 0.13 in openSUSE 11.1 running the kernel 2.6.27.19. On the PPC after plugging it in, for a few seconds a window "Connecting..." appears, but no connection can be established. Moreover, if I plug out the PPC, the process synce-serial-ch started from root blocks my system and uses all the CPU, so I have to kill this process manually.
Do I also have to patch my kernel like Mark described it on 2008-12-30?
Thank you very much for your help,
Daniel

Mark,
the part for the PPC from lsusb is a bit different from Wolfgang's:

Yes you need to patch, you have a 4 endpoint device. We've completely resolved this at last so I'll document it here with some notes.
1) Make sure you have your kernel source installed.
2) Get the ipaq module from svn at
https://synce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/synce/trunk/ipaq/ipaq-build
and the patch from
https://synce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/synce/trunk/ipaq/patches/ipaq-2.6.27.diff
3) In that ipaq module, remove ipaq.c, and replace it with the one from your
kernel source, then apply the patch from svn, and run make.
4) Copy the ipaq.ko in your /lib/modules/<kernel-version> directory somewhere
safe, and replace it with the ipaq.ko we just built
The new driver will then give you two USB serial ports. Plug in and it should work.
Synce 0.13 will start a dccm for both of these, which is unnecessary, and the command line tools will give a message about an unset device. These will not affect the operation, they just look messy, and have been fixed in svn, so will be in the next release.
Thank you very much Mark! Now my PPC connects with the Laptop, and I have made a first sync with kontact.
One issue remains: After plugging out the PPC, the process synce-serial-chat does not stop and must be killed manually. The log of one such event is attached below. This will not have much to do with the topic of this bug, but I would be very grateful to you (who is obviously a great synce expert) if you could tell me if you know this issue, or if I should file it as a new bug.
And one issue with the timezone is also pending, but this will probably be an opensync issue.
[Laptop BIOS time is GMT, Desktop time is Europe/Berlin (+1), PPC time is also GMT + 1, but appointments are (this) one hour late when synced from PPC to Laptop]
Thank you very much again Mark, without you I wouldn't have been able to sync anything.

The synce-serial-chat process will be the one for the unused USB serial port on the device. It should drop off by itself when you unplug, I'd be surprised if it had to be manually killed. The updated synce-hal and libsynce will solve this anyway, by not starting a ppp link on the unused port.
Timezones seem to be a problem that crops up sometimes. I've only just started fixing the PIM sync side. File up a bug to remind me.
OK, then I will come back to synce when version 0.14 arrives. Unfortunately synce-serial-chat really has to be killed on my machine.
Thanks again!
You can make it usable by applying the changes to libsynce from svn commit 3699, and to synce-hal form commit 3700
Mark, I had a try (downloaded the source packages, copied the two changed c files, and installed the updated packages), but it still shows the same behaviour as before. And it still starts to "pppd"s, if I'm interpreting the log correctly. The log goes always like this:

So the synce-serial-chat of the first pppd (pid 3546) makes problems here. The synce-serial-chat of the second pppd finishes shortly after the plug-in.
Can I do anything to help debugging this? (more log info, gdb, ...?) Because it seems that it is highly specific for my PPC.
Sorry for the noise, I forgot to bzip the changed source directories :-) I'm not much experienced in packaging...
Now the hang-up from before is gone, but I can't connect any longer! Crazy. The log is attached.

The file hal-synce-serial is failing before it has a chance to log anything. Did you get any errors when you patched ? Send the file and I'll have a look.
