Hi Dan,

Rereading your posts, I see that you are using gnome-pilot 2.0.15.
Bluetooth support is in gnome-pilot 2.0.16, and the newly released
gnome-pilot 2.0.17 fixes a bug that prevented device detection working
with recent HAL releases.

Note that there is a pilot-link bug that means gnome-pilot will crash
after a bluetooth sync.  The patch for that is here:
http://bugs.pilot-link.org/file_download.php?file_id=681&type=bug
and should be fixed when pilot-link 0.12.4 is released.
