Dell Axim Connectivity ==> LINUX

DanielJ · 05-09-05, 09:59 AM

Hello all,

Am planning to scrap Windoze :bang: on my home PC, and go with LINUX instead.

Obviously then as a result, I will no longer be able to Sync my Dell Axim PDA using "Microsoft ActiveSync" with my PC (running Linux).

Therefore, can anyone provide any advice/have any experiences with using their Dell PDA on the Linux platform?
IE: Are there any ActiveSync alternatives for Linux, or how has anyone using Linux dealt with the 'connectivity/sync' of their PDA.

I have performed a quick search on the Forums for similar posts/advice, without much luck.

Many thanks in advance,

Daniel.

Ironhelix,

Thankyou for taking the time to reply to my original Post. :)

I have checked out the links that you inserted in your Post, and as you state - "SynCE" does appear to be a compatible Plugin, for my PocketPC (2002) PDA.

Once I fully migrate over to LINUX (from Windoze), I will give SynCE a try and see how it performs. ;) Would you happen to have any Docs/TXT's on setting up SynCE?

Regards,
Daniel.
