Ah well, I never did get it working on anything but my phone. I battled for a while and then stuck with Dropbox, not sure whether I'm glad of that now or not since I'm planning to move anyway as Dropbox have just completely screwed my data - I tidied things up and reorganised directories and following that they've synced all my changes up to the server and all the files on the server that were in the original locations have been sync'd back down to my PC. Unfortunately I didn't twig quickly enough, so with applications remembering where documents were I now have some updates in the new locations and some in the old. To make matters worse some of my personal files have been sync'd up to a shared folder that I don't own (only my wife's but it could have been worse). Any chance the U1 software will be released as packages in the Ubuntu repositories? Clearly somebody needs to take on maintenance of it, but it could be an interesting competitor to Owncloud. Younited from F-Secure is where I was thinking of moving, but I'm having issues getting the Windows client installed (not a major issue as I rarely use Windows). More significantly the Linux client (in beta) doesn't support 32 bit (there goes support for my netbook) or Ubuntu 12.04 (another problem for my netbook). Off to investigate Owncloud and SpiderOak I think! -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ | 023 9238 0001 ============================================================================= Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 | Registered Office: Ralls House, Parklands Business Park, Forrest Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants, PO7 6XP -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
