There's no straight answer because, in my experience, it's unreliable;
you have to do a complex combination of cancelling/restarting the
hotsync on the Palm and cancelling/restarting it on J-Pilot or kpalm
then, suddenly, everything somehow aligns itself correctly and the data
comes across.

That said, 9.0 is the only Linux distribution I've ever come across
which is even _near_ to cracking this problem out of the box ...
