This is the issue I have been having too, the main reason I asked the list my questions. I have been syncing the rest of the thing just fine for backups using kpilot. That part isn't having problems. But just installing gnome-pilot and the other parts doesn't seem to get anything done. I use the Mandriva club releases as soon as they come out too... so it isn't that I don't have up to date packages for my distro. I can't wait for kitchensync to come out, and would gladly beta that for them but can't seem to find the page to sign up LOL. I have over 200 entries in my address book under Evolution for family alone, and REALLY don't want to enter them all by hand. I really wish that evolution had a client for palms all by itself anyway, as my client that is stock with my palm has no entries for anniversaries. I don't need to sync my email, just the contacts portion. Is there a step by step way to get gnome-pilot to work? The interface alone is really hard to use, as it wants to know what cradle I have, and as far as I know, they don't make one for mine. Do I just put in the Palm device hotsync name? Do I run the kpilot hotsync, then have to run the gnomepilot one seperately and how, from inside Evolution? or will it run fine through kpilot? kpilot seems to say it has an option to use evolution conduits to hotsync with a Palm, but as far as I can tell, hasn't been. Very confusing sometimes, but I am willing to try suggestions. Kind of need my palm for just about everything. Would help a lot to get the contacts to sync up so I can find phone numbers and things without entering the changes by hand every night. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
