(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hello all, I have a Palm Treo700p that I would like to sync to my laptop. I am running puppy 4.3.1 . I have jpilot installed, and have been able to get it to sync twice. Is there something that I can change to make this thing sync like it is supposed to. It is only working intermittently. If anyone is willing to help or point me to a discusion where this has already been solved I would greatly appreciate it. I have found a few write ups on this but I am new to puppy linux and still learning and i just dont understand what changes need to be made.

Since you've been able to sync twice already, this might help.

For me, I realised I could get my PDA to sync consistently when I pressed Hotsync on my PDA before clicking the sync button in JPilot.

Also, if I don't give enough of a pause between the two (i.e., less than about a second), I'd get the "Bind error". But clicking the sync button in Jpilot again would then start the synch process ok.

Hope this helps.

(PDAs: Sony CLIE SJ20, SJ30, TH55, and found I needed to do the simple trick of clicking on the PDA first for Puppies 4.3.1 and 5.0.1)

Thanks for the reply. I have tried this and was unsuccessful. I have also tried changing usb settings still no luck. does any one know how to confirm what settings the usb port would be set to?

Try to find posts on the subject with the puppysearch link in my sig.
