Zire 31 working with Dapper anyone ?

[Rob Blomquist]

when I use KPilot to sync with my Zire 31, I open Kpilot, connect the PDA, then reset the KPilot daemon, and tap the sync button on the PDA. I also use /dev/ttyUSB1, and not /dev/pilot as the device to sync to.

If I don't do it in this order I may not connect, and its a pretty frustrating experience.

In the case of running pilot-link, you may want to connect the PDA first, and start pilot-link second.
