Description of problem:
I am trying to transfer PRCs to my Tungsten E across a USB connection.
The file appears to transfer across and the "Synchronising <foo>"
message appears on the Palm, but then pilot-xfer just hangs and the
"Connection lost" dialog appears on the Palm. The file is not transferred.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pilot-link-0.11.8-8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect Palm, press hotsync
2. enter command "pilot-xfer -i file.prc"
3. wait
    

Actual Results:  File is not transferred and connection is lost

Expected Results:  File is transferred to Palm

Comment 2 Ngo Than 2005-03-18 09:20:05 UTC
it seems a bug in kernel, which has been fixed in new kernel version
2.6.10-1.770_FC3 in FC3 update.
