	Nothing, I don't think the file even exists. I just put
/dev/ttyUSB1 into jpilot as the port to connect to and it works fine. I
can also use pilot-xfer from the command line with the same port to do
bulk upload or downloads.
	One other tip for those trying to get Visors to talk to Linux
boxes via USB: If the Linux box does not respond at all when the Visor is
told to HotSync, as if there was not even a cable connecting them, try a
soft reset of the Visor. That is, press the recessed reset button on the
back (but don't press up during the reset!). Sometimes the Visor gets a
bit confused has to be rebooted. :(
