Hi
First time posting to this list, so I hope I'm
clear. I have read NOvember and December's list, and see I'm not alone
with problems syncing my Palm with Evolution.
I can connect with the pilot-xfer command.
First I press the hotsync button, then I very quickly type the approprate
pilot-xfer command, and it will sync to the appropriate directory.
however, I can't get it to sync with
Evolution. With 1.08, I just pressed the button, and it worked. I
could see all the updated entries in addresses and datebook in the Evolution
program. Now, I can use pilot-xfer to back up the files, but I can't see
the changes in Evolution.
I'm hearing lots of different theories, and I'm
sure it's being worked on, but is there anyone with a workaround that works NOW,
so I can keep Evolution and my Palm in sync.
I'm connected with a USB cradle, and have linked
/dev/pilot to /dev/ttyUSB1. I have the permissions set properly. Not
only doesn't it sync, but I can't even run the wizard that runs first
time. When it asks you to press the hotsync button to get info from the
Palm, it freezes.
I read in one post in the archive that there should
be a /dev/cradle. Is that true?
Should I have gpilotd running all the time.
It does not run by default at boot time.
Thanks
