There are three components to gnome-pilot: o gpilotd: the daemon o configuration applet: the GUI for changing settings. This can be launched from Evolution under Edit->Synchronization Options... o panel applet: This shows status on the panel when you are synchronizing and a progress window. Adding this to the panel, as described in my last mail, should mean gpilotd starts when you start your gnome-session.
