Palm synching.

[Robert Turcott]

Hi,

I need to get my palm (treo 600) synching with a usb connection.  I have 
struggled with it before and have got it part way there but really don't 
want to go through it from scratch again.  I had RH8.0 pretty well set 
up for a desktop at home but essentially reverted back to winXP and one 
of the main reasons is Palm synching.  I have a new install of FC3-test3 
for testing with our Progress DB server and would like to see if I can 
get the desktop setup to the point where I can finally switch (at home). 
  But I'm not going to go thru all that effort again if I can't get my 
palm going.

Gnome-pilot is installed and set up with default ports, but I belive I 
need to link the usb port, to which my palm is connected, to /dev/pilot. 
  I don't remember a simple way to find that device.  Also, anyone have 
experience getting to point where you can actually do a hotsync install 
of software (i.e. a .prc or .pdb file) and archiving?
Any help - or pointers to a CONSISE reference would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob.
