I'd love to know what. But: A) This is a Handspring Visor Pro, with PalmOS 3.5.2. There is no native VFS support in it. B) The expansion card is a Hagiwara Sys-Com springboard module. I don't believe it uses VFS of any nature. My understanding is that it is seen as a read-only extension of system RAM. (The card does not support the concept of directories. Everything is installed in root, so to speak.) I have a PiTech MemPlug CF Springboard adapter with a 128MB CF card which I'm slowly loading up. I don't know for sure _what_ Plucker will make of _it_ just yet. (The PiTech folks included thier own VFS support module with it.) > Unfortunatly, since it was Mike who originally wrote the VFS support, > he'll probably be the best person to fix it; and he's in Tokyo right > now :) <shrug> I'll wait. But as I said, 1.14 handled the exact same hardware and software configuration flawlessly. 1.2 broke something, and I'd _love_ to know what. Today, I removed the PlkrDocList file, then recreated all of my categories and re-assigned all of the Plucker docs. All was well until I synced another Plucker doc to the machine. As soon as I did, Plucker lost it again. It might work if all Plucker docs were either in RAM or on the card, but that's not a workable option. I don't have enough room in RAM, and the stuff I put on the card is explicitly intended for long-term storage. Other Plucker docs, like the Palm Tipsheet, and transitory and get deleted when I've read them. > Adam McDaniel ______ Dennis
