Yes, it's true: Zire 72 has a product ID of '61'.

So, I've recompiled gnome-pilot afer added a new line in gpilotd.c for
my Palm Zire 72:
        "Vendor=0830 ProdID=0061", /* Palm Zire 72 */

When compilation is ended, I move the new gpilotd binary in /usr/bin/
directory to replace the old one.

The next test is better than first one but I've a new problem with
conduit; if I don't configure any conduit, no problem (user
authentication, after synchro (nothing is done I think ?), then small
clean) but if I configure a conduit (any conduit), I've an error box
with a message like this one:
Unknown conduit "" (if test conduit is configured to be synchronised)

How to correct this new problem please ?

Thank you for help.
