Title: 5600 Sync from Organizer, via Palm desktop
Post by: hamiltonpruim on February 24, 2004, 08:18:27 am
I\'m trying to sync data from Organizer (appx 250 contacts, no calendar etc) onto my 5600. I installed Palm Desktop 4.1 (re-installed Z intellisync) and imported my lotus addresses.

I have tried USB and USB TCP/IP (192.168.0.1 for Z and .2 for PC, can ping both ways) and can achieve connectivity on both, and it will transfer a sample calendar and todo entry.  When it gets to the addresses, I get the message \"Your Zaurus is running low on memory\" and it falls over, no contacts transferred.

My Z is \"as out the box\" with qtopia 1.5.4, Linux Kernel 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix Sharp ROM version 1.00V

Any assistance gratefully received!

I have not received that error since I have used the memory monitor applet. You need to have an sd card formatted ext2 in your zaurus to use it properly because you will have to create a small swap file on it.

Some here will not agree with using a swap file on sd card, but I only use it for file transfers and some arcade type games and have had no problems with it.

You may need to install fdisk with this, if so use the ipk off the same sight.

Here it is:
