I'm using a Treo 90 on a clean install of FC3, with all updates. I can't get pilot-xfer or jpilot to work. I've tried the suggestions about 10-local.rules files without success, and finally tried using pilot-xfer directly, as root to avoid permissions problems. I pressed the sync button on the Treo USB cable, and (after a brief wait) issued the pilot-xfer command. It seems to connect, but hangs after transferring a small file or two; the Treo says that the connection has been lost.
