check your permissions on /dev/pilot or, if /dev/pilot doesn't exist, to /dev/ttyS0 (the port commonly called com1). If you are not root you may not have access to that port.
The permissions on that port may be set to only allow root rwx access. Use the chmod command to grant permission to your user account. -- Mark Johnson-Barbier That Great Sage Mingle, Michael Said > When I run pilot-xfer all it does is timeout on the Palm device after > about 2 minutes. > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Emmanuel Seyman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2003 12:54 PM >> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Subject: Re: Palm m105 >> >> >> On Tue, Mar 18, 2003 at 10:34:43AM -0600, Tim Willis wrote: >> > >> > I'm trying out this old Palm m105 (because it's just lying >> around the >> > office doing nothing), and I can't get it to HotSync with the Gnome >> Pilot interface in RH8.0.
