I haven't used a Tungsten, but here are a few common tasks that need to be done on a standard RedHat install to sync a palm:
1. create a symlink for /dev/pilot pointing to the port your pilot is connected to. For COM1 it's: $ ln -s /dev/ttys0 /dev/pilot #(for serial) $ ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/pilot #(for usb) 2. If you are not root (that's how you should be logged in) you may not have permissions to /dev/pilot. Several ways to handle this: # chmod 666 /dev/ttys0 # chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0 or add your userid to the "uucp" group 3. In Evolution choose "Tools | Pilot Settings" and configure the conduits. To test your syncronization and connection: $ pilot-xfer -l then follow instructions. Also: $ man pilot-xfer Another thought -- run the red carpet updater from Ximian to get the latest RPMs for pilot utilities. mjb On Thu, 2003-06-19 at 12:58, Jan Busk wrote: > Anyone who has managed to sync a palm Tungsten to for ex.
