Syncing Problems with gp 2.0.10, pilot link 0.11.7 and Evolution 1.4 on MDK 9.1

[Stefan Ulrich Hegner <stefan hegner-online de>]

Hi there,

I'm trying around a bit with gp & evolution. But so far this doesn't work
properly.

Pilot Link works fine together with jpilot 0.99.5 over an USB cable with 
my Clie SJ 30.

When Evolution fires up gpilotd and the control applet, I can start the 
sync process exactly once. During syncing, I get about 100 addresses 
copied to the PC, then it hangs a while and finally HotSync tells me on 
the PDA that the connection was lost. After this, the only way to 
reconnect is to kill the gpilotd with "-9" and restart it. Even if I only 
connect to get the Hotsync ID via the control applet, gpilotd hangs after 
a first connect.

Could it be that this has to do with the Mandrake USB mgmt, where the 
ports are mapped to /dev/usb/tts/0 and 1 after the USB devices are 
connected? I already got a message twice from the control applet, that
this is no valid usbport. - On the other hand this should not be the major 
problem, since pilot-link seens to be pretty happy with that.

Any help on this issue is highly appreciated.

BTW: Why can I use only 115200 baud max syncing speed over USB with gpilot?

Many thanks in advance

Stefan.
