Good Day! I am also having the same problems. gpilotd did not die unexpectedly under FC1. However, under FC2, it is extremely unreliable. For me, it seems to always die while syncing the calendar. I have ended up with duplicated events and other inconsistencies. Frustrating! I too have the following installed under FC2: gnome-pilot-2.0.10-6.1 gnome-pilot-conduits-2.0.10-2.1 pilot-link-0.11.8-3.1 evolution-1.4.6-2 And yes, the memo conduit doesn't do anything. (It never has. I use memos to copy stuff from the Palm to my desktop and install-memo to copy things from my desktop to my Palm. How convenient!) It would sure be nice if they made little memo pads (Post-It notes) in Evolution for the Palm memos. (I requested that of the Evolution folks seems like three or four years ago. I also requested a Journal. I must be the only person that used that feature in Micro$oft Outlook! And I synced the journal to Chapura's PocketJournal on my Palm also.) I have been trying to convince people that Linux is usable for a desktop for someone other than a techie. However, problems like the gpilot problem don't help my argument. Not having the notes in Evolution doesn't help my argument either. I have been syncing my data with kpilot and Kontact just to have a backup some place. Kontact has the notes and a journal, but it seems to be a little buggy yet and it is SLOW. It is not bad for a first time out, but the summary page needs to have more user customization options. Now if the kpilot folks could sync the Kontact journal with Chapura's PocketJournal on the Palm, I would have to start considering dumping Evolution for Kontact. Jim James A.
