Treo300 Connection troubles

[James Scott Hunter <hunter scott ghc org>]

Hello all.

I've been using gpilotd-control-applet (ver 2.0.10) from within
Evolution to sync my Treo300 with my company's Exchange servers. (I'm
using Ximiam desktop with the Exchange connector)

I never could get the USB interface to work and after a few days of
reading and patching kernels, I gave up and bought a serial cable and
quickly got it to work.  

There are still a few rough edges that I need to work out and I hope one
of you will be able to help.  

Syncing Memopad:  I can't get the notes in Memopad to sync with my
desktop.  When I used to use Outlook on Windows 2000 Memopad would sync
with an Exchange folder called Notes.  Now it appears there is a conduit
called Memofile which looks like it can sync memos from the Visor to a
directory in the ~/MyPilot directory.  I have mine pointed at a file
called ~/MyPilot/memo.   

I've tried all combinations of turning on 'one time action' and
'actions' but have never had a single note file make it from the Treo to
the computer or back.       

Can anyone help with this problem? 

--Below are the console message that gpilotd-control-applet generates
when it is started.
