Hi Phil, if you are still having problems you should give libusb a try. This is quite easy to configure and solved the problem for my m505.
For Edgy you can perform the following steps: 1. Make sure libusb is installed (apt-get install libusb-0.1-4). 2. Change the device via gpilotd-control-applet from "/dev/pilot" to "usb:". Now remove the gpilot-applet from the panel and killall gpilotd. 3. Remove the visor kernel module (rmmod visor) and put it on the blacklist by creating the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-palm containing "blacklist visor" (without quotation marks). 4. Finally you need to install the udev rule for libusb by ln -s /usr/share/pilot-link/udev/60-libpisock.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ Now add gpilot-applet to the panel again and your Palm should synchronize without hanging. -- gpilotd locks up my Palm Z22 https://launchpad.net/bugs/66355 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
