Tungsten E and Linux

I just tried to sync my new Palm Tungsten E with my Linux box. It worked out-of-the-box with the same settings as I had for my Visor! This is with Slackware 9.0. I sync using JPilot 0.99.5 with pilot-link 0.11.5. Can't get much easier than that!

I also discovered a way to massively increase the speed on USB transfers with my PDA. If you are using the Pilot-Link tools directly, use usb:/dev/ttyUSB1 for the port (with the -p switch). If you are using something like JPilot, put the same thing in the preferences for the serial port. The difference is breathtaking.
