[Bug 31898] Works well enough now (Re: Sync with PalmV over serial is inconsistent at best (Dapper))

[Peter Whittaker]

I can now consistently sync the Palm V over serial, with a couple of
caveats:

1) Only after a boot and before a suspend - there appears to be a kernel
bug related to waking up the serial port. This is obviously out of scope
for this report, just FYI, in case others have the problem of "no sync
after resume".

2) The second progress indicator still behaves oddly, especially during
the Econduits - it's fine during the backup ops, for example.

I am now getting useful logs, such as:

Collecting synchronization info...

    EAddress: Started
    EAddress: Ended
    ECalendar: Started
    ECalendar: Ended
    Backup: Making backup of DatebookDB
    Backup: Making backup of LauncherDB
    MemoFile: Started
    MemoFile: Ended
    EToDo: Started
    EToDo: Ended
    Backup: Making backup of ToDoDB
    Backup: Making backup of Unsaved Preferences
    Backup: Making backup of Saved Preferences

Given all of this, I am going to mark this as "Fix released", 'cause it
works, and what doesn't work probably isn't related to the originally
reported problem.

My apologies for the delay in reporting, best efforts and all that....
