Sync through serial cable?

[Juan Martinez <martinez eecs cwru edu>]

Hi,

I'm using the following packages on RH6.1/October GNOME:

	pilot-link-0.9.3-1
	gnome-pilot-0.1.48-2
	gnome-pim-devel-1.1.3-1
	gnome-pim-conduits-1.1.3-1
	gnome-pim-1.1.3-1

At home this setup works fine with my PalmIII and the cradle.
At work, I have a serial cable but no cradle.  When I'm in
GNOME's control center trying to setup Pilot Link, I click on
the 'get from pilot' button.  A window pops up asking me to
press the button on the cradle.

Since I don't have one, this is rather difficult.  I thought
it was possible to start the HotSync program on the PalmIII
and have everything work the same way.  Am I wrong in this
assumption?  Does anyone know what I need to do?
