Thing is, I had more than 2Gb used, almost 3Gb, and slightly less than 1Gb free, according to Palm's buggy Card Info (which only sees 4Gb out of 8Gb until you fill the first 4Gb) and DTG showed the same thing, so from my understanding it is acting just like Card Info. In my previous tests, DTG does report the correct amount of used SD space once I fill the first 4Gb, just like Card Info.
BTW, I have never seen negative amounts in DTG. I'm using DTG Professional 10.002.

Rye Enviada em: segunda-feira, 25 de fevereiro de 2008 12:34 Para: [email protected] Assunto: Re: RES: RES: [Treo] Practical question regarding syncing with Documents To Go This type of problem would be caused by using a signed, 32-bit value for storing the available space. Using a signed value, it is only capable of storing a positive number of 2GB - 1 byte. Once it hits 2GB, it turns negative because the most significant bit in the value is now a 1. If DTG is checking for a value less then or equal to zero, there lies the cause where DTG thinks the card is full. Once you get back to 4GB, the value turns positive again. Get to 6GB and a signed, 32-bit value will be negative again. Etc, etc .... --- Michael ..... Original Message .......
