When I ran it in a terminal window, I could see that the specific item being backed up was WiFiCoreLib. If the Pilot Applet is running, gnome-pilot crashes as well with the backup conduit enabled. Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. If the backup conduit is enabled, gnome-pilot crashes when it tries to backup WiFiCoreLib. 2. 3. Expected Results: Completed hotsync operation including files backup. How often does this happen? Always with the backup conduit enabled. Additional Information: Using a Palm TX.

Hi, This is a known issue with certain palm databases and pilot-link versions prior to 0.12.x. See this master bug, which contains a workaround for gnome-pilot in comment 9: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136010 The good news is that updated gnome-pilot and pilot-link packages are available for Ubuntu, courtesy of Daniel Holbach. If they're not available for you with a plain update, take a look at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PDATesters *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 136010 ***
