Re: [Evolution] gpilotd problems

[Jack Coates <jack monkeynoodle org>]

I'd be glad to update the web pages or at least produce a to-do list for
consolidation of the pages into one where some current information could
be found.

However, I still don't have a working gnome-pilot. Is there at least a
-debug or --verbose switch?
[jack chupacabra jack]$ gpilotd          
gpilotd-Message: gnome-pilot 0.1.71 starting...
gpilotd-Message: compiled for pilot-link version 0.11.7
gpilotd-Message: compiled with [VFS] [USB] [IrDA] [Network] 
gpilotd-Message: Activating CORBA server
gpilotd-Message: Watching Cradle (/dev/pilot)
