yeah thats the same problem of having 2 of them running...if you start one manually and then run the control center, it will start of one its own. The control center has it use the gnome session stuff to prevent it happening again or something. usually I do this: killall -9 gpilotd gnomecc #setup everything ps auxw|grep gpilotd #make sure only 1 is running after that it stays working. you might want to try removing these directories and starting again. .gnome/gnome-pilot.d/ .gnome_private/gnome-pilot.d/ -Justin _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
