Probably the error is there. > ---- actually, I have never created /dev/pilot - it was always put there by udev/rules.d/10-udev.rules and originally, the rule you had me comment out - thus, when device is not sync #BUS="usb", SYSFS{serial}="0000:00:02.1", NAME="pilot" # ls -l /dev/pilot /dev/ttyUSB* ls: /dev/pilot: No such file or directory ls: /dev/ttyUSB*: No such file or directory and when it is sync # ls -l /dev/pilot /dev/ttyUSB* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Dec 9 14:19 /dev/pilot -> ttyUSB1 crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 188, 0 Dec 9 14:19 /dev/ttyUSB0 crw------- 1 craig uucp 188, 1 Dec 9 14:19 /dev/ttyUSB1 and when I (as root) #killall gpilot-applet it pops up a window on my user desktop asking me if I want to reload it and I answer yes. at the moment - I cannot get it to reconnect to gpilotd - even after repeating previous steps of moving $HOME/.gnome2/gnome-pilotd directory and going through set up procedure - exasperating...
