My solution:
1. Open a terminal window and type: "gpilotd-control-applet"
2. under "PDAs" -> "Add..." (or "Edit")
3. click on "Get from PDA" and the PDA button: "HocSync".
4. Change the "PDA settings" to:
Owner: "Your Name"
PDA ID: "1000" (not "0"!)
Name of PDA: "MyPDAtx" (new name)
Local
It should be emphasized, that Neil has identified the bug, and it is
still persistent in Ubuntu 9.10.
A user ID of 0 breaks various things. This can be remedied by setting
Userid to anything greater than zero.

I had the same problem as the OP on Hardy Heron. In my case it was

Reynaldo, I haven't replied for a while as I had to downgrade my 7.10
ubuntu to 6.10 (server) als the gusty gibbon caused too many problems

I think that my problem had to do with the device settings rather than the name
of the pda as you suggested.

Hi there Fiona. Which version of Ubuntu and gnome-pilot are you using? And

could you elaborate on the problems you are facing? are you using

are you just having problems with the pdb/prc install procedure or are you

problems with plain synchronization too?

I see that this problem was first reported dec 2006. I have tried the various
options mentioned here but have had no luck installing files to my Palm zire 31

I previously used kpilot which worked perfectly, so it's a major disappointment
that it doesn't work with gnome.

I managed to install files by dragging them to applet. It just worked.
However, it's rather difficult to discover this way of installing files.
