Linux Support on USB Palm Pilots?

Posted by Cliff on Thursday May 12, 2005 @03:35PM from the to-sync-or-not-to-sync dept.

seachnasaigh asks: "I love desktop Linux, but the one stumbling block I have with deploying it in some capacity for my userbase is USB Palm Pilots. Once upon a time I managed to get GPilot working with a serial PalmVx, but despite repeated attempts (SuSE 9.2 pro, Fedora Core 3 and several Palm devices) I can't get a synch to happen with the USB version, either through the native Gnome Pilot app or through Evolution (and yes, Kpilot too!). Our standard deployment is a Palm Tungsten T series; most of our desktops are recent Dells. It's embarrassing to have to boot into Windows to synch the Palms. Does anyone have some suggestions out there?"

Do you have a thought-provoking or complicated question that could benefit a large group of people?

If not, why are you kicking about someone else who just has a normal question?
