What alias you were talking about.  Is this the "alias char-major-188 visor"
that I suggested to Herbert?  If so, it really shouldn't be necessary.  What
happens in kPilot is that it polls char-major-188 frequently, so I aliased it to
visor simply to stop the syslog messages. What that does is, the first time
kPilot polls it force loads the visor module.

I never had an error - once the hot sync button was pushed hotplug loads the
visor module.  My last guess for the cause of your problem was wrong, so I'll
try another - what version of hotplug do you have?
