When speaking of autostarted "deamons" on login - how is palm
syncronisation handled? I don't know about rawhide/fc4, but on FC2, i
have to enter the pilot config dialog for the pc-side "daemon" to be
started, in order to be able to sync my palm. How about evolution, which
seems to be a part in this (as the calendar/todo is synced to it)?
