best synching for Linux
« on: February 16, 2004, 06:17:13 am »
What is the best combination for synching PIM information with a desktop app.

I originally tried using multisync to sync the default PIM utilities on the original sharp ROM for 5500 with Evolution (failed) and with a backup folder on my desktop (worked once).

Someone on irc suggested that it would work with Opie so i changed the rom and still can\'t get it to work - see here for details

Does anyone know of a surefire way to get me using the Z as my mobile PIM and able to sync to my production machine?

Absolutely!  You want and need KO/Pi that syncs with Korganizer on linux for calendat/todo.  See this thread:

Here is the developers website; http://www.pi-sync.net/
Latest is 1.6.1a and I have it on a 5500 and can sync with a Mandrake 10.0 box!  This is a fantastic app, I cannot say enough good about it.  And it does use the ical format, so you do not have to use KOrg on the desktop.
Handheld:. Sl-5500 tkcROM 1.0 (defunct) * apps on ext2 Lexar 256 SD
Desktop:. Mandrakelinux 10.2 Cooker * kernel 2.6.11
Both computers run linux, proud to be MS Free
