Had a look at the multisync page on sourceforge. Seems like it is designed for the Gnome Environment - it says: "MultiSync is a free modular program to synchronize calendars, addressbooks and other PIM data between programs on your computer and other computers, mobile devices, PDAs or cell phones. MultiSync works on any Gnome platform, such as Linux." I prefer to use KDE - will need to do some research to see if it works with KDE.

Not that I've tried it or anything, but you might want to look into multisync. I've been trying to use it to sync Oracle calendar with sunbird (with minimal success, but it seems an apt application for this situation)... -Jared On Mon, 21 Mar 2005 18:36:35 -0500, Raja Mukherjee <raja.mukherjee56(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks for all the suggestions re. changing default email client - I > found the selectable preferences under the Gnome Control Center - > couldn't find anything equivlent in the KDE Control Center though. > > Now all I have to do is figure out how to have the kPilot memos (that > I synched from my Visor Prism) to transfer to the Notes module in > Kontact > > Raja Mukherjee > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug >

Thanks for all the suggestions re. changing default email client - I found the selectable preferences under the Gnome Control Center - couldn't find anything equivlent in the KDE Control Center though. Now all I have to do is figure out how to have the kPilot memos (that I synched from my Visor Prism) to transfer to the Notes module in Kontact Raja Mukherjee

At this meeting, yours truly will be giving a talk about how Linux was used to create video DVDs from files created by a TV capture card. In this talk, there will be a demo of simple video editing, creation of the DVD menu, and creation of the DVD files and directory structure. If there is time, we might be visited by Drs. Howard, Fine, and Howard. I'll have two books for the no-cost raffle. Maybe someone will come to the meeting just to try to win one of these: Building Applications with the Linux Standard Base The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System After the meeting, anybody who is intersted can join the crowd for some pizza either across campus or on Highland Street. WLUG meetings are open to the public. There are no admission fees or membership dues. We do accept small donations if you are feeling generous. :-) Soda and cookies will be provided at the meeting.
