Greg,
Do you receive any error messages when you try to sync? I assume the Pilot
times out indicating it's lost connection with the pc or something of the sort?
I have been using jpilot myself and there are a couple of things you can try.
First, start jpilot without using plugins with "jpilot -p". This just worked
for someone else. Apparently there was a problem with the mail plugin.
Where is /dev/pilot linked to? Is this the port where the cradle is connected?
Does pilot-xfer work? You can try "pilot-xfer -l" (that's "el", not "one") as a
test.
Are you clicking sync and then pressing the sync button on the cradle? jpilot
cannot automate this process as well as Windows apps can.
