I just bought one for my wife and wanted to see if it would sync with our 9.1 system at home. I'm thinking I might get one for myself as well. I can't get it to work, however. The Palm pilot sees the computer but cannot hotsync. I've got the conduits that I want (I think) configured and the user id entered. However, I don't know what the other settings should be. I've looked at the SuSE help files, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to do everything it talks about. BTW I can't get it to work with Evolution either.
If someone has some idiot proof directions, I would sure appreciate the help (I need it!).
I have a Visor I sync USB and what worked for me was to fire up KPilot, go to Settings -> Configure KPilot and fix the device to point to the correct USB port. First time thru it took a bit of trial and error to get the right port (I wasn't sure which one it was plugged into and I have 6 USB ports, so I kept trying until it worked). Once that was done, put the Palm in the cradle and hotsync. It takes a second or so to get recognized, then hotsyncs away. Much much slower than the Palm hotsync that ships for Win, but it does work. Also note I do not use daemon mode, so I'm not sure how that works, I always manually fire up KPilot and get it running before I put the Palm in the cradle to hotsync.
