Which OS are you using on your laptop? There seem to be a couple of bluetooth related bugs in recent linux distros, e.g. Ubuntu 11.10. There seems to be a kernel bug, but also the GNOME bluetooth stack has issues. I am not yet really sure which issue causes these problems for SyncEvolution. > Given this experience, I am puzzled by Fredrik's announcement of success: > > On Tue, 2011-10-25 at 12:59 +0200, Frederik Elwert wrote: > > > I recently got a Nokia N9, and I am now experimenting with > > SyncEvolution to get my Desktop and the N9 in sync. > > > > It started fairly promising: I could add the N9 with the Nokia > > template in sync-ui.

There might be a simple answer: I use my work machine for sync, which still runs Ubuntu 10.04. Bluetooth works there. With SyncEvolution on the desktop, and using the built-in SyncML support of the N9, I managed to sync successfully, and I am using this solution on a regular basis. However, it has its flaws, as timezone information being lost, etc. So there is still room for improvement.
