You will definitely save me a lot of head banging that would have happened the first time that file got overwritten. :0) ---- I wouldn't have expected what I had in 10-udev.rules to work for you. That is the point of making extra entries into udev.rules - to add devices that weren't known when the devicelist was made. I found this info to be quite useful for udev and creating entries for 'unknown' hardware. http://webpages.charter.net/decibelshelp/LinuxHelp_UDEVPrimerMisc.html It enabled me to simply identify my Kyocera 7135 and point it to /dev/pilot and it obviously works because J-Pilot and pilot-xfer programs find it quite easily. gpilotd however - even when told to connect to /dev/pilot remains deaf. That is my point. I was hoping that the evolution experts could understand what was going on and tell me how to troubleshoot it but I am gathering that the gpilot stuff in evolution is external - except for the conduits and the fact that gpilot isn't connecting is beyond the evolution application itself. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
