Thanks for your quick reply, JP. No, no SSH here. Installed, perhaps, but I've never used it. I forget if I did something specific to fix this problem before; it may have just been a snapshot or other update, but I used to have this problem, it went away, then everything worked. Then I started having sync problems and couldn't restart gpilotd after shutting it down. I haven't tried restarting the computer... hate to kill that uptime :) I may try that tonight. I did just install the latest version of sawfish (from sourceforge, I think), which doesn't seem to work at all with Ximian's gnomecc and has some other minor problems though it generally works great. --Eric
