J-Pilot is a Palm Desktop alternative for *nix operating systems providing full HotSync and organizer functionality. It utilizes pilot-link, which is included by default with some popular Linux distributions.

The latest version of J-Pilot’s source code is preserved below. While it hasn’t been updated since 2014, due to its dependencies on other Linux packages and its availability in a variety of package managers, it is recommended NOT to use this package and to instead find the appropriate binary for your OS.

    pilot-link
    libpisock-dev

    autopoint
    autoconf
    intltool
    libtool
    libgcrypt20-dev
