    Barton! I don't know how to thank you properly. It's so awesome that you've takend the time to make this work. Not that I have gotten it to work yet (some includes missing such as win32file), but I am still amazed. I hope I can get it to work soon and undertand it well enough to be of any help in this discussion. Enormously grateful. Thanks!

      Garmin GPS and USB [PyGarUSB package]

      Hello,

      I am starting this discussion in an effort to get my Garmin GPS to work with pyUSB, and a place to exchange information and code appropriate for this topic.

      According to bartonc, in another discussion, Garmin and pyUSB don't work together because of the way Garmin installs in Windows. Can anyone explain why? And is there a workaround for this?

      Really, the simplest way to get this to work is to buy...

        Yeah I got it to work after several days of agony. It was a stupid problem. I was using Python 2.5, and apparently the binary files don't work for the newest version. So as a last resort I tried to install Python 2.4 and it worked. Thanks for noticing I got it to work.

          What do you mean by this? Does that mean I can't access my Garmin with pyUSB? I have spent days trying to get pyUSB to work, and now that it works and I try to find the product information for my Garmin I get this error message (below). How do I circumvent this?
          usb.USBError: usb_control_msg : sending control message failed, win error: The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.

            How to install pyUSB?

            This seems like a pretty straight forward thing to do, but I just can't get pyUSB to install properly. I download the .gz file from SourceForge and run the normal "python setup.py install". I get this message:

            >python setup.py install

            running install
            running build
            running build_ext
