Networking :: Cannot Get Wireless Sync From Palm Tx To Kpilot On Ubuntu 9.04
Nov 14, 2009
The palm tx can browse the net and send/receive emails wirelessly. It can sync with kpilot via the usb cable. It can 'see' the router at 192.168.1.1 when I browse to there. After browsing various websites/forums (including palm's own).
Have set kpilot to device net:any and the slowest speed 9600, but message is 'Cannot open pilot port net:any'
Message from palm is 'connection between your device and the desktop could not be established. Please check setup and try again.'
I tried a command line which I found somewhere. The result is:

I cannot seem to make my Tungsten E2 handheld Palm OS PDA sync on ubuntu 9.04 with jpilot, gnome-pilot, or kpilot using my USB connection. I diff'd the output of the ls command when the pilot was trying to connect to sync, and with it entirely unplugged.
The result was the following:
Code:
I'm not seeing a ttyS0 or ttyUSB or pilot or anything which is kind of disturbing.../var/log/messages reports that the palm was only discovered as a "high-speed USB device," which would suggest my kernel is not recognizing it as a palm pilot.
How to configure any type of palm software or my kernel so that I can sync?

I have just aquired a Palm Tungsten T3 and am trying to get sync/network via bluetooth working in Natty.I am wondering if there is a 'correct' way to do this as the bluetooth architecture has changed drastically since these howtos were written.

I use jpilot on opensuse 11.3 64bit to sync pim data with my Palm Treo 680 via bluetooth. This worked fine until today. Now I get the following error message when I try to sync: Syncing on device bt: Press the HotSync button now dlp_ReadSysInfo error Exiting with status YNC_ERROR_PI_CONNECT Finished.
The last successfull sync was on the 20th October and today is the 24th October. I did not change any settings in jpilot or on my palm device. So I guess there must have been an update of opensuse which causes this error. But I do not now how to look up the updates during this period or how to undo them. Was there an update between the 20th and the 24th Oktober, which might affect either jpilot or bluetooth functionality?

have Evolution syncing with Palm Treo except for the Tasks. In a previous installation Memos didn't sync. I have set the EToDo, EMemos, ECalendar and EAddress conduits to Copy from PDA, yet no data appears in Evolution. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.

I've been trying to get my palm TX to sync with kubuntu 8.10. Quickly after I place the palm on the cradle I get a warning msg that I've attached below. I did follow some directions at one point where it required me to install visor. It had sync'd a few times, but then it started giving me these errors. Eventually I tried to delete the device, etc.
The msg:
Failed to connect using device 'Cradle', on port 'usb:'.
Check your confirguration, as you requested new-style libusb
'usb:' syncing, but have the old-style 'visor' kernel module loaded.
You may need to select a 'ttyUSB...' device

I have an old 3E that syncs up very well when I use Vista on my Presario and a USB to Serial port adapter, problem is I really hate Vista. I just installed linux mint 8, which I love but no luck in syncing my palm 3E. Does anyone know if I have a chance of getting this to work? If so I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

what files control the udev device mapping. I'm trying to get a fresh install of 11.3 to sync a palm pilot with jpilot.
I have created a "10-pilot.rules " file in /etc/udev/rules.d containing:
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="Palm Handheld*", KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", NAME="ttyUSB%n", SYMLINK+="pilot", GROUP="users" MODE="0666", OPTIONS+="last_rule"
when I hit hot-sync I get:
crw-rw-r-- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jul 18 22:13 /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw-r-- 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jul 18 22:13 /dev/ttyUSB1
If spent the last 6 hours googling around and yes I'm a member of "dialout"
What is controlling the attributes of these nodes?
Oh, and P.S. Why'd they put alpha video drivers into the kernel another 3 hours wasted.

I've recently upgraded from 10.3 to 11.2 (32 bit). On my 10.3 system I was able to sync my Palm Treo, plug in cameras and they'd pop us as filesystems etc. Now, although my printer, and ipod are recognised, anything else I plug in isn't.
* When I plug my camera in and turn it on, nothing happens
* When I try to sync my Palm Treo, it seems that the /dev/pilot device isn't created by kpilot.

I've got Ubuntu One syncing a single 25MB folder on 4 computers. On one of these computers, the ubuntuone-syncdaemon process constantly pegs the CPU, using from 50-80% long after any sync-able files have been modified and successfully synced. The process is only using 8.9MB of RAM.
Specs:
Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)
Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic
1000.8 MB RAM
Pentium 4 2.53GHz
Free disk space: 280.9 GB
System monitor shows 56.8% total RAM usage, 15.4% swap file usage.

Audio sync method. "Stretches/squeezes" the audio stream to match the timestamps, the parameter is the maximum samples per second by which the audio is changed. -async 1 is a special case where only the start of the audio stream is corrected without any later correction.Searching the net makes one believe that this command is just some sort of magic.People just put it in the line and it just works. Isn't that nice?
It says nothing about how to change the TIME the audio starts syncing. Like do I want it to start 5 seconds delayed? Or what about 5 seconds sooner?What if the audio gets more out of sync as the video goes on? Can I slip it a little at a time? What? No magic?No one mentions a file that already has badly synced audio.So what -async 1 really does is simply start the audio at the beginning of the file. LIKE AS IF THAT ISN'T STANDARD PROCEDURE?So what is the exact solution to syncing a messed up video? And why can't it just do the proper "timestamp" sync in the first place?No docs, no info and you are left out in the cold.

I've discovered Firefox Sync a while ago, and it's absolutely awesome. Now of course I'd like most of my software to work this way! So is there a way to get the same behavior with Thunderbird?

kpilot worked just fine with my Palm Tungsten T3 on OpenSuse 10.3. I recently upgraded to 11.2 and have had numerous problems. It took me a while to get the hardware talking (documented in another thread), but now the sync is proving to be problematic. A hotsync happens - and I can also sync fully with jpilot, but the sync isn't going anywhere. I'm hoping to sync with kontact, but it's impossible to tell as kpilot hangs whenever I try to configure the conduits through the "Configure kpilot" menu item. When syncing, the log complains of missing conduits:
Version: KPilot 5.3.0 (KDE 4.3.0)
Version: pilot-link 0.12.3
Version: KDE 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) "release 6"
Version: Qt 4.5.3

Ever since I had a hard drive that had an unexpected mechanical failure 2 years ago (& had to pay $1400 to have the drive pulled apart in a vacuum & copied), I've been understandably paranoid about ensuring I keep multiple up-to-date copies of my hard drive.Currently, I'm running 3 computers- The TV Computer, my Wife's Computer & my Main Computer. A second hard drive in the Main Computer & an external hard drive both act solely as backups for my Home folder. The TV Computer & my Wife's Computer also keep an identical Home Folder to my Main.I have ssh installed on all computer's & have made bookmarks via the Places Menu's 'Connect to Server', so obviously it's very easy for me to exchange files between computer's...
My problem is this; Every time I save/download/change a file, I have to copy it to 4 other hard drive's. It's kind of annoying.Can anyone suggest some ways for me to save some time with this? It's a wired network with static ip's. All 3 computers are pretty much turned on 24/7.I'm open to middle-of-the-night scheduled type of thing or whatever.

I have been able to sync my Nokia C6-00 using multisync in Ubuntu Lucid 10.04. Thought of sharing it in Ubuntuforums. I have borrowed most instructions from one post for Nokia N95 but do not have the link right now.
1. Install blueman using sudo aptitutde install blueman This installs the bluetooth manager. It should be easy to configure bluetooth support for your phone with blueman menu.
2. To get your C6's MAC address, open a terminal and type:

I upgrade to 9.10 over the weekend and have an issue with connection to my Palm Centro.
I have been using ubuntu since 8.04 and have been syncing my Palm (using jPilot and Palm Desktop on Windows XP Host (in VBox) regularly. (not without usual initial troubles .
After the upgrade, I synced it once - the Sync reported error with some voice memo and was completed. My datebook and todo on Palm got updated properly. However after that one instance, now whenever I try connecting my Palm using the USB ... the Palm reboots !! I cant seem to figure out why OS upgrade would in anyway affect this particular USB connection.
My other USB drives work properly (and Palm USB sycn happens on other machines - RHEL and Mac). So, it must be something to do with USB settings on 9.10 I guess.

The new Google option in Evolution works beautifully for both contacts and calendars, and gnome-pilot syncs my Palm Centro perfectly with Evolution. Perfectly, that is, until I choose a Google destination in the gnome-pilot settings.

This happened with 09.something and again with 10.04. When I plug in my Palm Centro smartphone, it starts endless rebooting. I solved it last time by removing modem-manager from /usr/bin.But that program didn't reappear through my upgrade.
Well, when I first upgraded, then plugged in my Palm through a USB cable, the phone rebooted. Then, I was able to sync to JPilot. Attempting the same thing later, the phone rebooted continuously.Today, I seem to be able to sync again.

I am just about to pull out my hair! I have been trying all day to get my Palm Tungsten E2 to sync with Gnome-Pilot via Bluetooth, with no success. Some stats:I am running Mint 11, which is essentially Natty without Unity. Whatever differences exist shouldn't affect the BT stack.I have successfully paired my Palm with my laptop. A "connected" icon appears next to my Palm's entry in Bluetooth Preferences when I attempt to sync.I have successfully synced to Gnome-Pilot via USB cable, but not via Bluetooth.
I did not have this kind of trouble with Ubuntu Maverick. The hardest part in Maverick was the pairing, but once I got past that, I had no problem with syncing.I'm about to head over to Launchpad to report this as a bug, but before I do, I'm hoping someone might be able to offer some insight or maybe point out something I'm forgetting or missing.

I had to get a new workstation and its Win7-64. I found out that my Palm TX will not work on their or is supported by the manufacturer (unless u have bluetooth, I dont). So I have been trying to get it to work on my Debian. Using "Palm Devices" "Gnome-Pilot" connects fine and backs up but I dont see any kind of GUI like Palm Desktop. So I still cant work with my palm or install software etc.

What I want is to use the systems account as the samba accounts.In school we have a project to simulate some sort of corporation with different platforms. I've created a map called shared and for authentication the users should only need to be a member of the group employees. (force group = groupname in smb.conf right?) Now, I don't want to create the users with smbpasswd -a because there is alot of accounts and the users should be able to choose their own passwords. So, is it possible to sync the system accounts with samba and only use group as authentication?

Cron refuses to work when trying to sync with a network drive. I am trying to setup a cron job to backup a folder in my home directory ('/home/scratch') to a folder ('home/internet_backup') that is mounted (using nfs) to a network folder. The folder ('home/internet_backup') is mounted correctly to the network folder upon system startup, so this part works.
I created a simple bash file (rsync-shell.1.sh) that looks like this:
Code:
# backup the contents of 'scratch' (of 'internet' machine) into '/home/aa/internet_backup/'
# the latter folder ('/home/aa/internet_backup/') is mounted to 'developer' machine
rsync -av --exclude=".*" /home/aa/scratch /home/aa/internet_backup/
#
When manually running this bash file from my home directory (./rsync-shell.1.sh) everything works, and the contents are written to the destination folder. Yet, instead of running this manually, I wanted this to be executed by Cron every 30 min. so I first chmod +x this file, and then copied it (using sudo) to /root.
I then created the following using 'sudo crontab -e':
Code:
# m h dom mon dow command
10 * * * * /root/rsync-shell.1.sh
This is the same bash file illustrated above, yet, it doesn't work (files are not being written to the destination folder).

Transfer a file from my webbook (Ubuntu Hardy) to my palm phone.I know that the gnome-pilot application is there and it appears to synch my contacts with evolution however, from the forums it should be possible to transfer files by dragging them to the synch icon but this doesn't appear to happen.
I tried to look it up in the manual from the terminal: man gnome-pilot.This help file is a four liner which directed me to usr/share/ but there aren't any entries there other than conduit configuration files and what looks like a glade gui layout. pilot-xfer just gives me a 'command not found' or equivalent message.

I am interested and looking forward to get a smartphone or a personal data assistant with calendar/ email/ contacts just like the iphone does.My intention is to be able to sync my smartphone's data with my home server that actually carries my PIM applications. Basically, during the day when I am not home I will modify or add/remove data from the phone. When I arrive home I would like to be able to sync my changes to my server. My laptop will be reconfigured to retrieve and sync from that server.
Proudly running with Slackware on ALL my machines (gotta love Slack!), and Apple being **** by not supporting open source and linux environment, it seems that it will be difficult to have something working out of the box and will probably require jail-breaking the device, etc.. I don't want to rely on external services such as Google calendar except for the email from Gmail.
