Now, however, I can't get gnome-pilot to recognize my Tungsten at all. I've
followed the same procedure I used in Hoary and also in Breezy, but something's
awry. I've asked a couple other forum members who posted the same problem to
look at this bug and send you guys the error messages in the meantime. I'll get
back to you if I can get it working again. One thing I should mention is that
the name of the device in the udev rules (ubuntu guide) is not 'Palm Handheld'
for the Palm Tungsten T5, it's 'palmOne'.
