-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2008-0453 2008-02-02 00:59:49 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : pilot-link Product : Fedora 8 Version : 0.12.2 Release : 17.fc8 URL : http://www.pilot-link.org/ Summary : File transfer utilities between Linux and PalmPilots Description : This suite of tools allows you to upload and download programs and data files between a Linux/UNIX machine and the PalmPilot. It has a few extra utilities that will allow for things like syncing the PalmPilot's calendar app with Ical. Note that you might still need to consult the sources for pilot-link if you would like the Python, Tcl, or Perl bindings.
Install pilot-link if you want to synchronize your Palm with your Red Hat Linux system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This update fixes pilot-link problem with usb connection. If your Palm device is plugged in at the time of the upgrade (or you are experiencing difficulty with having the Palm device recognized) you should probably unplug and replug in your device after the upgrade for the new HAL configuration to take effect. If kernel module 'visor' is activated then the HAL USB solution may not work - so it may be necessary to remove it manually (use command /sbin/modprobe visor) or reboot the computer. If there is any problem read README.fedora. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
