I believe this information is related to this bug: When I start gpilotd manually in a terminal, it runs fine and I never have a problem syncing. When it is started by opening the app at System --> Preferences --> PalmOS devices, it syncs fine until I close that window. Once I close that window, gpilotd crashes on the next sync attempt and must be killed with -9, then restarted.
When it is started by that GUI app, the process info is: ryan 5530 0.2 2.1 68136 10924 ? Sl 02:38 0:00 /usr/bin/gpilotd --oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_Pilot_Daemon --oaf-ior-fd=51 If I start it manually with gpilotd --oaf-activate- iid=OAFIID:GNOME_Pilot_Daemon --oaf-ior-fd=51, it still works fine... so I guess all I can contribute is that gpilotd crashes when it is started via the GUI and the GUI is closed when a sync attempt is made. -- Palm synchronization unreliable https://launchpad.net/bugs/50981 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
