[jack chupacabra jack]$ rpm -qa | grep pilot

evolution-pilot-1.2.2-1.ximian.1
gnome-pilot-0.1.71-2mdk
pilot-link-devel-0.11.5-5.ximian.1

And here's my problem: it works fine using pilot-xfer -- I can do
anything at all. gpilotd is totally useless, not even
gpilot-install-file works. Any ideas? I've tried running gpilotd from a
console to get its output, and it seems to be listening to the right
port, it just never hears the Palm V and eventually times out.

I have now tried:
installing the Mandrake 9.0 RPMs for gnome-pilot, libgnome-pilot, and
pilot-link (via urpmi)
installing the 9.1 RC1 "cooker" RPMS for gnome-pilot, libgnome-pilot,
and pilot-link (via rebuild of src.rpm)
installing the Ximian RPMs for gnome-pilot, libgnome-pilot, and
pilot-link (via red-carpet)

None of these attempts changed the situation in any way; pilot-xfer
works, gpilotd doesn't (& produces zero helpful output).
