<SOLVED> How do i sync IPAQ 111 w/PClinuxOS 2010 (KDE4)?

[jeff359w]

I have a dell inspiron 1501 with PClinuxOS 2010 beta installed.  Does anyone know where I can obtain task-wm5sync-kde?

I'm want to be able to sync with my IPAQ 111.  I see notes directing me to install task-wm5sync-kde, but I cannot find the package.

Help

Hi jeff359w

It doesn't look as though its in the 2010 repo's anymore (I just checked the 2009.2 repo for you and its still in their)

I'm guessing you found these: task-wm5sync-common and task-wm5sync-gnome and synce-kpm

I tried the task-wm5sync-kde with my Windows Mobile 2003 phone but alas I was unable to make it work.

I also tried task-wm5sync-kde with combination's of the above but again couldn't manage to get it to work.

I had to use VirtualBox and run Windows within that to do my syncing

I don't know whether you've seen this site How to Run Linux on iPAQ Handhelds (I haven't read through it) but it may help you - good luck:

Success! Thanks to all who helped.

For those running KDE4 2010, if you follow the instructions in the following article, you might get your IPAQ 110/111 to sync completely (I even synced instead with Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightening through Google Calendar!
