Description David Steckbeck 2007-08-21 03:56:00 UTC
Description of problem: Gnome-pilot won't sync even when pilot-xfer using
/dev/pilot works


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 7 -
gnome-pilot-2.0.15-5.fc7


How reproducible: On a new install of F7 and on an upgrade. Press the hotsync
button, either with a config or a new config and nothing happens (expecting a
sync). running `pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l' connects, I get the pleasant
sounding chimes, and a list of apps on my treo 700p


Steps to Reproduce:
1. on new or upgrade installation
2. add the required udev rules
3. use the initial sync setup screen and nothing happens
4. cancel the bad sync, restart it and type 'pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l` at the
command prompt, and you'll get a list.
  
Actual results:
No workey, yet pilot-xfer works.

Expected results:
Expected it to sync.

Additional info:
This stuff worked fine in FC6
If I run gpilotd from the command line, the last line I see is "gpilotd-Message:
Using net TRUE". From seeing others' logs, I should see 'setting speed 57600' or
something like that, and a bunch of additional stuff...

I found some additional steps other's have tried, like adding my account to the
'uucp' group and changing around the udev rules. None of it has worked.

Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2007-10-02 14:58:57 UTC
Is this problem still present on Fedora 8 Test 2 or later?

Comment 3 Matěj Cepl 2007-11-14 15:08:40 UTC
Reporter, could you please reply to the previous question? If you won't reply in
one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.


Comment 4 David Steckbeck 2007-11-29 14:01:22 UTC
I didn't get a chance to try any Fedora 8 Test builds, but did try the full
release, and it's working now. Thanks!

Cool, thanks for the update.  Closing as CURRENTRELEASE.
