[Bug 38574] Re: Pb syncing treo 650 on dapper drake

[saniac]

I have identical symptoms to Franz. I have a Palm Tungsten T.

I can successfully sync maybe 1 time in 20. All other times I receive
output from gpilotd just like Franz' above. I have tried creating a hard
/dev/pilot as suggested by Matt - the symptom persists, and then udev
scripts tidy up /dev/pilot afterwards!

pilot-xfer also does not work reliably, nor does Jpilot.

I have built 0.12 pilot-link. If I have a hard link to /dev-pilot,
pilot-xfer dies straight away with the message "Killed."

Otherwise, if I have not pressed the button, pilot-xfer says "Unable to
bind to port: /dev/pilot". If I have pressed the button, pilot-xfer asks
for me to press it again.

Timing is definitely an issue, but there is some other subtle problem,
otherwise the hard link would work.
