I did not know about http://en.opensuse.org/Synce and worked with old
synce.org wiki. With the help from Guido Diepen and Mark Ellis I
eventually managed to connect to WM6 device using synce 0.11. Somebody
on the list asked me then to send the steps I went through and I
posted a kind of "checklist". Now I see it in my mailbox, but
strangely not in synce users mail list archive.

I'll include it here.
Please note that I did not try synchronization tools. My purpose was
to just establish IP link.

I tried to write down what I did so far to install version 0.11
on openSUSE 10.3. Please note that "additional packages" are for my
installation. It could happen that others installed these packages
already or have different missing dependencies. I used additional
indentation for the packages installed automatically by YaST.

1) Compilation and building of usb_rndis_lite-0.11
  - You need to install kernel source tree and headers:
    kernel-source
    linux-kernel-headers
  - If you use standard SUSE kernel (have not compiled your own), you
need to re-create
  .config file (SUSE does not provide it):

      cd /usr/src/linux
      sudo make cloneconfig

  - untar usb-rndis-lite-0.11.tar.gz
      cd usb-rndis-lite-0.11
      make
      sudo ./clean.sh
      sudo make install

2) Compilation and building of libsynce
  - additional packages (of course, depends on specific installation):
       dbus-1-devel
       dbus-1-glib-devel
           glib2-devel
           pcre-devel

  - untar libsynce-0.11.tar.gz
      cd libsynce-0.11
      ./configure --enable-desktop-integration
      make
      sudo make install

3) Compilation and building of librapi2
  - additional packages:
      python-devel
         python-tk
         blt-2.4z-301
      pyrexc (BTW, configuration indicates that it is not installed
but does not fail. make fails after that)

  - untar librapi2-0.11.tar.gz
      cd librapi2-0.11
      ./configure
      make
      sudo make install

4) Compilation and building of odccm
  - additional packages:
      gnet
      gnet-devel
      hal-devel
         libusb-devel
         libext2fs-devel
         libblkid-devel
         libuuid-devel
         libcom_err-devel

  - untar odccm-0.11.tar.gz
      cd odccm-0.11
      ./configure
      make
      sudo make install
  (no need to copy odccm.conf manually, in 0.11 make install handle it).

5) Compilation and building of synce-gnome
  - additional packages:
      python-setuptools
      dbus-1-python
         libxml2-python

  - untar synce-gnome-0.11.tar.gz
      cd synce-gnome-0.11
      sudo python setup.py install

============

Probably it could be used as input for updating openSUSE wiki page.
