(sorry for misspelling your name, Franz...) A couple more diagnostic tips:
have you tried the 'static device node' trick mentioned above? This basically means doing something like: # mknod /dev/pilot c 188 1 # chmod 0660 /dev/pilot # chown :uucp /dev/pilot to create a /dev/pilot device node that behaves like ttyUSB1. This trick can prevent annoying timing problems caused by latency in udev device node creation. do you get reliable behaviour with pilot-link? Try pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -l If it works like a dream without any problems, then it's more likely to be a gnome-pilot problem. If it has trouble, chances are your problem lies elsewhere. -- Pb syncing treo 650 on dapper drake https://launchpad.net/bugs/38574 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
