Well, if Andrew is using gnome-pilot package from Mandriva 2008.1, the patch is already there.. But maybe, some bits are still missing for Palm Drive in hal-info. Please, attach output of lshal when PalmDrive is connected before and after hotsync is started (since I remember it changes the way it is advertised over usb but I'm not 100% sure). -- Frederic Crozat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mandriva _______________________________________________ gnome-pilot-list mailing list gnome-pilot-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-pilot-list
