    Hi,
    
    I'm having trouble getting my Palm (Treo 700p) to sync with jpilot on my
    Centos system via USB.  When I sync, I get this error in jpilot:
    
    pi_accept Illegal seek
    Exiting with status SYNC_ERROR_PI_ACCEPT
    Finished
    
    Does anyone know what this error message means?  I'm trying to figure
    out what's going wrong, but I'm not having any success.
    
    I have jpilot syncing fine with this Palm over the network, BTW.  For
    USB, I set things up for udev as described on various websites.  Here
    are the relevant ports & symlink (created and deleted automatically with
    each sync attempt):
    
    lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 7 Oct 17 09:09 /dev/pilot -> ttyUSB1
    crw-rw----  1 root uucp 188, 0 Oct 17 09:09 /dev/ttyUSB0
    crw-------  1 marc uucp 188, 1 Oct 17 09:09 /dev/ttyUSB1
    
    I added myself to the uucp group.  It doesn't look like this is a
    permissions issue, does it?
    
    I have tried various things, such as using a different USB port on the
    PC, and having jpilot sync to /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 instead of
    the /dev/pilot symlink.  I've also searched the jpilot mailing list
    archives, and the web in general, and still no solution.  I'm running an
    up to date Centos 4.3 system, pilot-link-0.11.8-8 (from Centos), and
    self-compiled jpilot 0.99.9.
    
    Thanks for any help!
    Marc
