It probably depends on what type of palm pilot you are trying to sync - and what version of fedora you are using. If it is a palm pilot that connects via usb, then have a look at these to pages: http://www.clasohm.com/blog/one-entry?entry_id=12096 http://krakoa.dk/wordpress/2007/03/25/fedora-7-test-2-and-usb-palm-pilot-sync/ Basically you need to setup udev so that it creates the correct symlink (/dev/pilot). And then of course configure j-pilot to connect to /dev/pilot - but I think that is the standard settings. If you are not afraid of using the terminal then it might be helpful to run: pilot-xfer -l This will simply list all files on your palm pilot, but I find it a nice way to simply test the connectivity. And for any of this to work reliably I have found that I need to push the hotsync button on my palm pilot _before_ pressing sync in j-pilot. -- Mads Villadsen <maxx@xxxxxxxxx>
