Description Josiah Royse 2002-10-20 02:47:17 UTC 
It would be great if a pop-up or error box letting the user know that
/dev/ttyS0 exists, but the permisssions prevent configuring the device. (Or
maybe remind users to symlink /dev/pilot to /dev/ttyS0) Currently the sync
conduit sits there if there are bad user permissions.
