As long as it's not packaged by a distro, running 2.0 will be a bit complicated technology wise, and even slightly more at the moment, since there is not yet a complete source package. Instructions are here: http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/hacking.php Let me know if you need any help! The procedure will become a little bit simpler once I release a source package, but you will still need to install all the dependencies yourself. > For all other purposes where I access same data from several devices I > am extremely satisfied with Dropbox.

Any hope for the future? :-) 2.0 has a built-in sync protocol precisely for those scenarios, which is much more effecient than dropbox because it does not need to sync the entire database each time. Pick one of your machines as a server (typically the one that is on most of the time), enable sync server in 'configure mnemosyne'. Then, in each of the other machines, choose 'file - sync' to connect to that server.
