I am (most of the times) successfully syncing my Treo with Evolution
(using gnome-pilot): these are the RPM packages I have installed that
have "pilot" in their name:

> rpm -qa | grep -i pilot
perl-PDA-Pilot-0.11.7-24
evolution-pilot-1.4.0-0.ximian.7.6
gnome-pilot-applet-2.0.9-0.ximian.7.3
pilot-link-0.11.7-24
gnome-pilot-conduits-2.0.9-0.ximian.7.1
gnome-pilot-2.0.9-0.ximian.7.3

(you can use this command line to find out about the versions of the
packages installed on your workstation).


[As for the "most of the times" part: synching not successfully means
that synching is done successfully ( :-) ), but my workstation freezes
just when the Treo sings goodbye to the workstation. My current wild
guess is that this only happens if synching ToDos is enabled; I have
"successfully" proved other wild guesses to be wrong during the last
weeks, e.g. by freezing a 2.4.21 kernel etc..]

Well, does /dev/pilot exist? On my machine, I have

> ls -l /dev/pilot
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2003-06-11 16:29 /dev/pilot -> /dev/ttyUSB1
