I can't synchronize my Handspring Visor Deluxe with JPilot. I used this combination with every previous Fedora version. The connection seems to be resetted at the time I push the "sychronize" button in JPilot. pilot-xfer works fine, showing the contents of my Visor (-l) and fetching some random files (-f). Both programs, pilot-xfer and jpilot, use /dev/pilot which is a symlink to ttyUSB1. I use a USB docking station. I've tried to access /dev/ttyUSB1 directly from JPilot with the same result. The message pane withing JPilot shows **************************************** Syncing on device /dev/ttyUSB1 Press the HotSync button now **************************************** But Visor shows a message about a resetted connection. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jpilot-0.99.9-3.fc7 pilot-link-0.12.1-6.fc7 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Push sync button on the docking station 2. Push sync button in JPilot 3. Immediately read a message about a resetted connection on Visor's display
Okay, it seems it was my fault and not a bug. Today I browsed through JPilot's settings once again and looked closer to the serial rate option. It was set to 9600. Since it also says "Does not affect USB" I just ignored it. But JPilot magically synchronized again after I've set this value to H460800. The essence: JPilot is not buggy, but the description is highly misleading.
