Im English bitte

Babel fish translates all that Deutsche as follows:

Rear one, I had the same problem with synce rra the library. The solution of the error lies in the error message: with the option Werror are treated warnings as errors and broken off thus. Either you castest the problematic value delivery (was me too much work) or however you look for full text for Werror and schmeist in the src/Makefile and lib/Makefile raus (you can ignore Makefile.am or in confidently) If you do not know as, I can dispatch also the FC4-pakete to you; -) Greetings from Ankh Morpork

Ahem...

TranceDude: I'm sorry - which package?

TranceDude · 09-11-2005, 07:18 AM

it was meant for the other user

he said "If you do not know as, I can dispatch also the FC4-pakete to you; "

So I wanted to have the FC4 package for installing it

Oh, you mean SirVimes

It is good practise, when responding to a particular post, to include enough info for others to be able to figure it out. Usually one would place the members name in boldface ahead of the reply and/or a quote showing what you are responding to.

Even better - when you want someone to send you a file for eg. is to send them an email with the request. You can do this by looking them up.

Cheers.

Sorry for the stupid question, but is there anybody who can gives advise:
Installed SynCE, (yum install synce*) no probems, and a working communication with the Ipaq (including the GNOME tools).

Have problems though with MultiSync. I found a Evolution2 plugin for FC4, which I installed, but get an error on the Synce-plugin: Failed to get plugin changed: unkown error.

I then tried to build everyting from the source, but get an error on the 'make' command on the RRA module:
[root@lucky synce-rra-0.9.1]# make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/share/Download/Synce/synce-rra-0.9.1'

which means I cannot get the Synce-multisync-plugin installed as a part is missing.

Any help is REALLY appriciated as I need it for work, but am not doing any work as I am trying to get this to work...

You got the plugin and so on from the above?
You've created a new synchronisation pair in multisync?

lucky_luuk · 02-06-2006, 08:15 AM

Yes I do, I installed the RPM's available.

I tried to install the CVS as well, but run into problems with the plugins as they are giving errors during the ./configure command:
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: Makefile.in

... hmmm... understand it's been some years since I last installed SynCE to anything, however - look in the directory you ran config in and see if there is a file called makefile.in ... chances are you just don't have this. If not, then check the tarball (via fileroller) to see if it is there...

Take a look through the rest of the config output to see that it is detecting stuff in your system OK.

You may need to pass some parameters to the config script ... check any readme files about this.

However - returning to the initial post: the multisync plugin comes from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...ckage_id=92164 ... which one did you get? (There are no specific FC rpms here ... the one you got is for FC4, says you, but you have FC3?)

I followed the How to - SynCE connect using USB, and despite problems at the begining (see print out) the usb connection did start but the Raki applet did nothing and nothing happened at the computer end. After a short while a message came up on the PDA saying ???? I am not sure as someone touched the PDA and lost the message. It does appear the the PDA now has a connection but I am still unable to synchronise my info.

Anyone have any other suggestions.
