If ttyUSB0 doesn't work, try ttyUSB1. My second guess is that it's a timing problem between the sync initiation by your device, and the udev-created ttyUSBx devices appearing and being ready for action. These kind of problems have been annoying and have fluctuated with udev releases. Have you tried using the command-line utility 'pilot-xfer'? You can install pdb files directly using: pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -i file.pdb You may need to replace ttyUSB0 with ttyUSB1, depending on your palmos device. You will need to start the sync on your device and then run pilot-xfer. pilot-xfer is part of the pilot-link package, so you probably have it installed already. I haven't used kpilot, so can't diagnose any specific problems there. Matt Matt Davey You can't have everything. Where would you put it? mcdavey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Steve Wright
