Re: problem syncing on OpenSUSE 10.2

[Wendell MacKenzie <mackendw sympatico ca>]

Hi Matt:

   Just had my phone replaced by bell with a freshly initialized one.  
setup the bluetooth sync
profile, conduit, etc. and did a copy_to_pilot sync type of my address
book from evolution-2.8.2.

   Kabam.  Same reset after the e_address_conduit finishes its sole
operation.

   Here are the diagnostics from gpilotd -d:

gpilotd-Message: Watching Cradle (/dev/pilot)
gpilotd-Message: Watching Bluetooth (network)
gpilotd-Message: Woke on network: Bluetooth
gpilotd-Message: Device Bluetooth has 0 events
gpilotd-Message: Instantiating 1 conduits...
eaddrconduit-Message: in address's conduit_get_gpilot_conduit

gpilotd-Message: Instantiated 0 backup conduits, 0 file conduits, 1

gpilotd-Message: NetSync request detected, synchronizing PDA
gpilotd-Message: PDA ID is 1000, name is MacPalm, owner is Wendell MacKenzie
gpilotd-Message: Pilot has 0 entries in restore queue

eaddrconduit-Message:

(gnome-pilot:14652): gpilotd-WARNING **: Unable to open conduit!
gpilotd-Message: Synchronization ended

(gnome-pilot:14652): gpilotd-WARNING **: error -202 from pi_close.


Any ideas on what to try now? 

thx.
Wendell


At this point, the treo reboots.
