I haven't synced for the most of 2 years (my wife neither) , We still use them alot. (we both use NVBackup by Alex Pruss) I had gnome pilot working before on a different computer. So setting it up this latest time was alittle easier. (I almost have Access' desktop 6.2 running in .wine... all works... except the actual pim! so other than a need for a palm conduit for EWallet, that works Palm desktop running in wine, I'd be happy w/ just using Evolution) My experiance setting up Evolution sync this time worked w/just 3 separate installs! I'm syncing a lifedrive w/ wifi to Evo, and its working now, but I'd like to see the gnome conduits flourish!

Re: Building gnome-pilot
For now I'm not syncing anything, including date. Once things sync correctly I was going to start adding in conduits. On Sun, Feb 6, 2011 at 7:41 AM, David A.
