If (as you mentioned in your other email) you've got the basic syncing to work, then that's it done. pilot-link provides commands to transfer files to and from the PalmOS device. However, it's much easier to use something like JPilot (which is what I use) to provide something like the PalmDesktop interface. It's easier than using the command line, and also lets you browse the date etc. records easily under linux. Evolution lets you sync to the PalmOS device, but you might need to install some other stuff, too, and there are also other GUI tools, including GPilot. As for websites, IIRC there is usbvisor.sourceforge.net, which has info and links on setting everything up for the Handspring Visor, but it should be similar for the Clie. There are others, too - search google with 'linux palm sync' and similar keywords.

I think that he's saying the software is installed. The version of pilot-link that ships with 8.1 does not support USB Palm devices.

In a subsequent email, he'd said that he had something working, so I assumed that he'd already obtained the later pilot-link (as I had to for my Visor). In which case, he doesn't *need* anything else, although JPilot does make things easier - although, again, he'll need to download a newer version that supports pilot-link 0.11.x. And I found that neither pilot-link 0.11.x nor Jpilot to match compiled easily under SuSE - various tweaks were needed to get around some dependency problems.

I have been at this off and on for the past week myself, unsuccessfully. I need help with figuring these "tweaks" and "dependencies" if anyone could please assist. I have been trying to get JPilot to run with my Sony Clie S320 (USB-only), but I keep running into problems. I am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on a way to get it to work. So far I have compiled/installed/tested (successfully) pilot-link v0.11.5. I have "taboo'd" the pilot-link and perl-pilot module via Yast2, and installed the JPilot from the 8.1 CD's. (I had to make a symlink from /usr/lib/libpisock.so.4 -> /usr/lib/libpisock.so) But, on sync, JPilot just sits there trying to connect to /dev/ttyUSB1 with no errors, then my Clie times out. So, it seems as if JPilot isn't communicating properly with my palm? I have also tried to compile a fresh JPilot, but it keeps erroring out on the Keyring feature (error at bottom of email). I need to get JPilot to work, and I don't care if it is from the CD's or the tarball, but I need to keep pilot-link v0.11.5, due to the USB issue. Any help appreciated, I am at my wits end trying to figure this one out.

You can get the rpm from Ximian: pilot-link;0.11.5-7.ximian.2;i386;ximian pilot-link;0.9.5-47;i586;base ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/8.1-i386/ximian -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
Hi, I downloaded the latest Ximian [1.2.1] and pilot. I thought I had installed Ximian - I used Yast from root but I still show 1.0.8 and the Pilot update would not update saying it needed the new Ximian? What am I doing wrong? thanks serge naggar
Try right click and choose ""Open with kpackage"". Hope this helps. Bill Registered Linux user #298909 http://counter.li.org On Saturday 18 January 2003 12:30, Serge Naggar wrote:

I must be misinterpreting your suggestion. I went to the evolution1.2.1-rpm file I downloaded and right-clicked -->to the Open I tried, but the `Open with kpackage' is not among the many choices found in Open With: followed by Known Applications as there is no obvious choice.

OK. There must be an option called ""Others"", or just ""Open with""... Click on that one and type Kpackage and the program should come up. Bill On Sunday 19 January 2003 05:50, Serge Naggar wrote:

I have a sony clie 665 and pilot-link showing as installed. Will this work under evolution or do i need jpilot or xpalm desktop?
I don't really care as long as i get it to synch with something. How do i start pilot-link?
anybody got a good web link for this?
thanks again I have good luck using jpilot with my Palm Vx Not so good luck with kpilot (it fails sync most of the time, and once duplicated all the address book entries on my palm) Shit luck with Evolution (I have never gotten it to sync in almost 2 years of
