I'm trying to get my Garmin GPSMAP60CS to work with VMWare Server.
Windows 2000SP4 guest running on a Linux host.
SuSE kernel 2.6.11.4-21.10-default, VMware-server-e.x.p-22088 rpm.
I realize this is a bit of an often asked question, found the following searching:

I added what I thought was the necessary debugging options and it appears they are recognised:
Apr 04 16:52:36: vmx| DICT usb.analyzer.enable = TRUE
Apr 04 16:52:36: vmx| DICT debug = TRUE
Removing and adding the device causes the following klog messages:
usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 5
garmin_gps ttyUSB0: Garmin GPS usb/tty converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
garmin_gps 4-1:1.0: device disconnected
usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6
garmin_gps 4-1:1.0: Garmin GPS usb/tty converter detected
usb 4-1: Garmin GPS usb/tty converter now attached to ttyUSB0
But I don't see any USB log messages in the vmware.log. The logfile is receiving output (confirmed by tail -f), just nothing usb related.
Obviously the device isn't showing up in VM/Removable devices (just shows empty) and if I run the Garmin Mapsource client inside of Win2k it fails to see the GPS.
Is there any point in trying to debug, in which case what am I doing wrong?
Or should I give up and fall back to serial speeds using Interceptty as mentioned in the other threads?
Thanks
Tony
