Re: [gentoo-user] Palm/Visor + Gnome 2 + Evo 2 + gpilotd Problems...
Ok. I deleted the original Pilot entry from Pilot Settings. Restarted gpilotd-control-applet and added the Tungsten again which went fine. The terminal output was as follows: ** Message: No pilot userid/username information located ** Message: Unable to load pilot id/username, assuming unset ** Message: Cradle Type - USB ** Message: cradle device name - Cradle ** Message: cradle device name - /dev/usb/tts/1 ** Message: Pilot Speed - 115200 ** Message: Timeout - 2 gpilotd-Message: Activating object OAFIID:GNOME_Pilot_Daemon ** Message: No pilot userid/username information located ** Message: Unable to load pilot id/username, assuming unset ** Message: Cradle Type - USB ** Message: cradle device name - Cradle ** Message: cradle device name - /dev/usb/tts/1 ** Message: Pilot Speed - 115200 ** Message: Timeout - 2 Strange thing though: after closing the applet, /usr/libexec/gpilotd kept running and prevented jPilot to synchronize. I remember that in earlier Gnome versions there was a small applet that allowed me to turn that thing on and off allowing other applications to talk to the Palm. Nevertheless synchronizing with Gnome/Evolution didn't change a thing. Except for contacts everything is simply ignored. Since your problem seems to be more technical we should propably compare our environments: As of January 8th I am running a 99% stable Gentoo with kernel 2.6.9 and Gnome 2.8.2.

I made real progress - and it is embarrassing how. I simply overlook a tiny checkbox in Evolution titled Personal. So I am fine now David D.

[gentoo-user] Palm/Visor + Gnome 2 + Evo 2 + gpilotd Problems...
Hi All- Just finished upgrading to Evolution 2, and I'm having a lot of trouble syncing up my PalmOS device... It all started just after running Evolution 2 for the first time, when I tried to sync. It appeared to sync fine, went through the motions, but did not actually update the contacts/to-do/calendar in Evo or on the palm with new entries created on the opposite side. So, I backed up the palm and tgz'd the ~/MyPilot and ~/.evolution directories. I then tried a variety of different things to get things syncing. The only thing that seemed to make a difference was going to /usr/share/gnome-pilot/conduits and moving the non-2.0 conduits to /usr/share/gnome-pilot/oldconduits After this, it appeared to use the new 2.0 conduits, and attempt to sync the data into Evo 2. But I ended up with duplicate records. D'oh! Running pilot-dedupe got rid of some duplicates, but I still had at least 2 copies of every entry in the contacts, calendar and to-do databases. At this point, I opted to start over, so I attempted to restore from my backups: `rm ~/.evolution -fr` `rm ~/MyPilot -fr` Hard reset Palm Untar ~/MyPilot backup Untar ~/.evolution backup Use pilot-xfer to restore pilot from ~/MyPilot/* But now, when I try to sync up the palm, I get CORBA errors. Same errors when I try to use gpilotd-control-applet to get/send the ID to the pilot. Figured next I'd try removing ~/.evolution once again and doing a straight Copy-From-Pilot to restore my contacts and calendar, since they're OK on the pilot after the pilot-xfer restore. But still can't get the pilot to sync with gpilotd. Tried unmerging and re-emerging evolution, gnome-pilot and gnome-pilot-conduits. No change. Am currently at wit's end... Has anybody got any ideas? Thanks, Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
