Uhh, yeah, except that you still can only use 13-character device
names with gnome-pilot (0.1.58 here). We fixed that a long time ago in
pilot-link, I'm waiting for them to catch up with the fix in gnome-pilot.
gpilotd-Message: gnome-pilot 0.1.58 starting...

gpilotd-WARNING **: Ooops, pilot-link cannot handle ports with names
longer then 13 chars.
gpilotd-WARNING **: Sugggested fix is to make a symbolic link with a
shorten name and
gpilotd-WARNING **: Use that instead
gpilotd-ERROR **: exiting, pending fix...
I still can't sync my pilot to gnome-pilot yet. Conduits crash,
records get mysteriously deleted or duplicated, and generally, it's quite
unstable.
I'm sure it'll mature along the path though, but I'm a bit upset
at trashing my data every time I have gpilotd running. I need to learn
more about the gtk+ framework so I can help them fix this. There are other
niggling problems with it (it can't initiate a sync unless I 'warm up' the
port with dlpsh or some other port-tickling app), so until it stabilizes,
I won't/can't use it.
They're waiting on me for a release of pilot-link 0.9.5, and I'm
waiting for them to fix all of the bugs so I can release 0.9.5. (drumming
fingers on desk)
