Re: [Evolution] Sony Clie no longer recognized by gpilotd

[Ron Hauptfleisch <hops foobox net>]

I have a Clie SJ22 and I am running Evo 1.4.3 under RH 8.  I can make my Clie work only by doing the following:

1. Tools->Pilot Settings.    This seems to prime gpilotd.
2. Sync the Clie.  It will fail, but don't interrupt it or you will have to do this step over.
3. Sync the Clie.  This time it will work.

This behavior totally repeatable, 100% of the time.

The Clie also behaved this way under the previous version of Evolution.
