Have tried to install kdepim and KO/Pi seems to work OK. KA/Pi is not so good. It doesnt start.
Running from the terminal shows that it requires libbluetooth.so.1 . Does anyone know anything about this file, please? Where can I get it? How can I install it (if it doesnt come as an ipk) etc. etc.
Many thanks

Please contact the maintainer of the Ka/Pi package for pdaXRom.
The current version of KaPi on sourceforge (which does not run on pdaXRom) does not require the bluetooth lib.

I had the same problem
When installing bluez-* from the feed, kapi starts, but I can't add contacts etc.
It says "no recources found" or something like that. I already copied a few files from my win2k-box, now I have less errors when starting, but still no go in adding contacts or importing files.
Anyone who has got it working ?

Hi,
kapi doesn't find it's own interface to load and save addresses to a file.
Try this:
mkdir /usr/lib/kde3
ln -s /usr/lib/qt/lib/libmicrokabc_file.so to /usr/lib/kde3
export MICROKDEDIR=/usr
start kapi from that shell

ok,
this seems to work, though I did:
ln -s /usr/lib/qt/lib /usr/lib/kde3
(not just one file/ but the full dir)
now i can add and import contact, still have to find out how to save
It does not seem to do this quite right

my saving problem is solved:
the location of std.vcf was wrong in the rc-file
kapi is now working

Hello Christoh,
that are great information.
Could you tell my what env variables your pdaXRom is using to find user installed libraries?
On my Z with installed OpenZaurus I have the variables:
QTDIR=/opt/QtPalmtop
QPEDIR=/opt/QtPalmtop
OPIEDIR=/opt/QtPalmtop
whereas the KDEPIM libs in general are installed into
/opt/QtPalmtop/lib
At the moment I am using unly QPEDIR to search for the libs.
If I have this info I could search for this variable at KA/PI application start, and your workaround is not necessary.
thanks,
Ulf

Hi Ulf,
I really do not remember exactly which variables I changed, but
I think, KDEDIR is set to /usr/lib/kde on PDAXROM per default.
There's no variable for QPEDIR, but for QTDIR. Perhaps that will help you:
# export
declare -x COLORTERM=""
declare -x DISTCC_HOSTS="192.168.129.1 localhost"
declare -x HOME="/home/root"
declare -x KDEDIR="/usr/lib/kde"
declare -x LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib/qt/lib:/usr/lib/kde/lib"
declare -x LOGNAME="root"
declare -x MAIL="/var/mail/root"
declare -x MICROKDEDIR="/usr"
declare -x OLDPWD
declare -x QTDIR="/usr/lib/qt"
The resources from the kdepim package for PDAXRom are installed in $QTDIR/lib
I hope that helps you.

Alright,
this will be fixed in 1.9.7 and later. Then all KDEPIM apps will check for the three variables QTDIR, QPEDIR and OPIEDIR which means it should find all libs on all ROMS. If anyone knows of a ROM that does not set one of those three variables please send me a note.
For now you can simply export the env variable QPEDIR=/usr/lib/qt
without using Christoph's workaround.

Hello
Kopi and kapi needs lipqpe.so.1. Where can I get this lib?
Thanx

Hi alexk,
the kdepim package for xrom should work without qpe. Perhaps you tried the version for oz or the sharp rom. Try the one from www.pdaxrom.org/feed2
