Hi All,

Running Evolution 2.10.0 under kernel 2.6.17-14 P3 512 RAM

Once again I am having trouble with Evolution synching with a Palm
device.  I have edited the /etc/dynamic/scripts/visor.scr file by adding
the Vendor Number 0830 and the device Number 0061.  The Palm device gets
picked up by lsusb thus:

[root@localhost andrew]# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:c03d Logitech, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 004 Device 003: ID 0457:0151 Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. Super
Flash 1GB Flash Drive
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0830:0061 Palm, Inc.
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[root@localhost andrew]#  

This time however I get a runaway warning message from gpilotd but the
message is blank (apart from the header).

I have let it run to see if it will stop, but it adds another iteration
around every second, got to 32 when I lost patience and killed it.
Needless to say, no gpilotd - no synch.

I struggle to comprehend why Evolution has so much trouble with synching
with Palm and yet K-Pilot and J-Pilot do not.  In fact out of all pilot
synching programs, J-Pilot is the most reliable - works EVERY time.

Has anyone else struck this? Any clues, please?
