[Bug 66355] Re: gpilotd locks up my Palm Z22

[Daniel Holbach]

It can be useful to figure out if the problem is with gnome-pilot or the lower, pilot-link, layer. To isolate (assuming you have pilot-xfer installed) try the following:
   1. Kill gpilotd (you may need to remove the pilot applet from the panel, and then do killall gpilotd from a terminal window).
   2. Now try running pilot-xfer: pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l (or '-p /dev/ttyUSB0', or '-p /dev/ttyUSB1', or '-p net:', etc)
   3. If that doesn't work, then you have most likely got a problem with your kernel/udev/usb/cables, etc, not gnome-pilot. 

It can also be useful to see the output from the gpilotd daemon. To do this:
   1. Kill gpilotd (you may need to remove the pilot applet from the panel, and then do killall gpilotd from a terminal window).
   2. Restart gpilotd (/usr/bin/gpilotd).
