From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Evoking gpilotd pegs the load around 1-2. The events/[0|1] process runs continuously generating the load. Killing gpilotd returns the system to an idle state. The conduits are configured: syncing to my palm Vx works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-pilot-2.0.10-6.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run gpilotd Actual Results: Top shows events/[0|1] process pegged at 100%; load level jumps to 1-2 Expected Results: No runaway threads Additional info:
I have the same problem. Have you found any solution?
WHat sort of palm device, what sort of connection, how is gpilotd configured? [First thoughts are that this is a permissions problem on /dev/usb/ttyUSB[01] which need to have read/write for you during sync]
Hi Nigel I have a Palm Pilot m105, and I synchronize through mi IR port. Device is /dev/ircomm0. I'm able to synchronize until the end. It's only when everything apparently finishes that gpilotd seems to loop, and I have to end the process manually. Moreover, some records are not properly synced, but I don't know if this latter problem is connected to the former. Regards.

I'm sorry that this bug has gone for so long without activity. Are you still able to reproduce this bug? If so it would be useful to attach gdb to the gpilotd process and post a backtrace of what it's doing here. Ensure you have the gnome-pilot-debuginfo package installed. Find the process ID of gpilotd by running ps ax | grep gpilotd and then type "gdb attach PID" where PID is the process ID.

Closing per lack of response. Also note that FC1 and FC2 are no longer supported even by Fedora Legacy. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4, please assign to that version and Fedora Legacy. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version.
