[Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Joel, silly question, but there isn't any chance you've got two versions of gpilotd on your system: one that you run from the command line and one that the applet finds? There aren't any arguments that I can think of that would affect the behaviour as you describe. One thing to check is whether your /dev/pilot symlink always points to the right ttyUSBx device. I've a vague notion I've come across cases where it sometimes gets confused, pointing to either ttyUSB1 or ttyUSB0, but not consistently. If this is the case you may want to try configuring gpilotd to use the correct ttyUSBx device rather than relying on /dev/pilot. Either that, or configure pilot-link for libusb syncing (search around for the howto) and then you can use the usb: pseudo device. -- After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/67077 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Hi Matt, Indeed I only have one gpilotd. I attempted to get libusb working. - that seems fine as i got pilot-xfer -p usb: -l to work. But I did have a question about ~/.gnome2/gnome-pilot.d/gpilot I could not figure out what to set /dev/pilot to? I tried device=/dev/bus/usb/002/001 which is the actual Palm usb device, and that didn't work. Any ideas? One thing I did notice is that when gpilotd is run at the command line is says: gpilotd-Message: gnome-pilot 2.0.14 starting... gpilotd-Message: compiled for pilot-link version 0.12.1 gpilotd-Message: compiled with [VFS] [USB] [IrDA] [Network] (gnome-pilot:21866): gpilotd-WARNING **: Number of devices is configured to 0 (gnome-pilot:21866): gpilotd-WARNING **: No accessible devices available (gnome-pilot:21866): gpilotd-WARNING **: Number of PDAs is configured to 0 gpilotd-Message: Activating CORBA server gpilotd-Message: bonobo_activation_active_server_register = 0 Which seems to imply that it doesn't read the same config as when the applet runs gpilotd. Could that be the problem since sync works after this if I run the applet and then sync?

Re: [Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
One more attempt by deleting the gpilotd config file caused the applet to reconfigure the gpilot. I attempted to set it to usb; but that complained with the visor module still running. So I selected the dev/ttyUSB1 which sync'd correctly and repeatedly. I have put visor in both /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-palm /etc/hotplug/blacklist So I will now reboot to make sure that the visor module doesn't get loaded.

But I did have a question about ~/.gnome2/gnome-pilot.d/gpilot I could not figure out what to set /dev/pilot to? You should be able to set it to 'usb:' using the config applet. It should even be one of the options in the drop down list. One thing I did notice is that when gpilotd is run at the command line is says: [...] (gnome-pilot:21866): gpilotd-WARNING **: Number of devices is configured to 0 [...] Which seems to imply that it doesn't read the same config as when the applet runs gpilotd. Could that be the problem since sync works after this if I run the applet and then sync? Have you edited your ~/.gnome2/gnome-pilot.d/gpilot? Is it possible that it's been mucked up so that gpilotd can't parse it? I can't think of a good reason to edit that file by hand, at least with pilot-link 0.12 and gp 2.0.14. You could try removing or moving your ~/.gnome2/gnome-pilot.d directory altogether and trying the config steps again.

Re: [Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Hi Matt, Now all is well - although there still seems to be a bug related to visor and being confused as you suspected about which usb device to use. I have deleted just the gpilotd config which causes the applet to re-inquire and setup again. Now USB is working and much faster as well - since visor is slow. Thanks for all you help! If there ever is a bug fix for visor related to the confusions about usb device, I could check that again by un-blacklisting visor, etc. Joel -- Joel Parke [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/67077 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Now, with all the updates, running directly from the panel, there is never any connection to the T3. BUT if I kill the gpilot-applet, and then start gpliotd on the command line with no arguments, and then start the gpilot-applet, I can sync as many times as I want. ? what arguments does the gpilot-applet pass to gpilotd when it needs to start it if it is not already running?

[Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
I thought about my last post some more and thought, perhaps it would be more helpful to load gpilod, then add the applet and then sync twice and record the output. See the attaced file 1 below for the First Sync. After that Sync - the only output was: gpilotd-Message: setting PILOTRATE=115200 (gnome-pilot:17960): gpilotd-WARNING **: pi_accept_to returned -202: No such file or directory (gnome-pilot:17960): gpilotd-WARNING **: pi_accept_to: timeout was 2 secs AND of course the second sync failed. I hope this helps. Thanks for all the hard work - this is a great release!

[Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Thanks for the bug report. Can you try this: 1. Kill gpilotd (you may need to remove the pilot applet from the panel, and then do killall gpilotd from a terminal window). 2. Now try running pilot-xfer: pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l (or '-p /dev/ttyUSB0', or '-p /dev/ttyUSB1', or '-p net:', etc) 3. If that doesn't work, then you have most likely got a problem with your kernel/udev/usb/cables, etc, not gnome-pilot. It can also be useful to see the output from the gpilotd daemon. To do this: 1. Kill gpilotd (you may need to remove the pilot applet from the panel, and then do killall gpilotd from a terminal window). 2. Restart gpilotd. ** Changed in: gnome-pilot (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/67077 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 67077] Re: After one sync, connections to a Tungsten T3 device fails
Hi Daniel, I did one sync which worked fine. Then as usuall, the second one failed. So I killed gpilotd after removing the pilot applet from the panel. I then realized that pilot-xfer was not on my sytem and installed pilot-link. pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l complained with sudo pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l Unable to bind to port: /dev/pilot Please use --help for more information and there are no ttyUSB0 or 1 devices. ? so what did I miss? - Sorry that I didn't get further. Running gpilotd gives: gpilotd-Message: gnome-pilot 2.0.14 starting... gpilotd-Message: compiled for pilot-link version 0.12.1 gpilotd-Message: compiled with [VFS] [USB] [IrDA] [Network] gpilotd-Message: Activating CORBA server gpilotd-Message: bonobo_activation_active_server_register = 0 gpilotd-Message: Watching Cradle (/dev/pilot) Thanks, Joel Parke On Fri, 2006-10-20 at 09:44 +, Daniel Holbach wrote: Thanks for the bug report.
