Jay,

Not much to contribute to you, but I experienced the same thing.  My
solution was to change the sync to be unidirectional - copy from Palm.
I find that I use it more to simply "back up" my Palm and probably would
be fine not particularly using the EConduits....

My environment has been Fedora Core 3 (regularly patched), an IBM
WorkPad c3 (Palm V), connected in a serial cradle (remember those
folks?), connected through a serial-USB adapter.  I am using the
Evolution, gnome-pilot and such that simply came with or has been
updated from FC3 in terms of versioning....
