I just had the same error while synchronizing my palm TX with freshly installed Gutsy. With Feisty I never experienced anything like this, and I changed nothing in the palm/desktop config.
After I closed the gnome-pilot dialog, the applet's icon stays green. On any attempt to restart/pause daemon it keeps telling me the synchronization wasn't finished I that I have to wait for it to finish. There's no way to restart the daemon from the applet's menu. 'killall gpilotd' doesn't help either. Surprisingly, the hotsync still works and finishes without problems, although the gnome-pilot status window does not appear during the sync. Note: I have Evolution window open at the time of hotsync, this may be related. -- After sync palm says: HotSync operation was interrupted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81396 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
