Hi,

I installed The new GVM and it worked like a charm, hotsync with my ubuntu machine, all great! Then suddenly the hotsync stopped working, I'm not sure what I did (trying to install too many files at once?) but now it just says "hotsync not started". I have not changed any hotsync settings.

When I try to connect nothing happens (the desktop doesn't react) and all I can do is push the "cancel" button, but that doesn't change a thing, it even doesn't close the hotsync window, I have to manually close it and that's it. I rebooted both machines (n800, desktop), to no avail. The problem seems to be on the n800 side because I can still sync my palm via USB with my desktop.

Has anyone experienced this?

I assume you're trying to sync to Evolution, and that you have the pilot-applet on your panel. I've had hit-or-miss luck with that, and sometimes have to do the following: first, right click on the applet, then restart it. If that doesn't work, go into System Monitor and kill the gpilotd process, then restart it from the applet.

jaslar,

thanks for your reply. You are right, I'm using Evolution and the gpilotd-applet. Unfortunatedly I had already done all the steps you describe. I found gpilotd sometimes unreliable with my T5 in the past, so I used tricks like yours, too. This time it won't do, I'm certain the daemon is running and it connects to my T5 alright.

Cheers!

Could it be tat the beta ran out? As I recall the beta said it would expire on 05/31. My GVM is working just dandy as of 06/02 but I don't HotSync.
Are others having problems syncing?
