Re: [Barry-devel] Blackberry Curve (8330) from Verizon

[Joseph W. <jtw...@li...>]

I downloaded the latest from CSV, updated the Mandriva src.rpm with the latest 
source and rebuilt.  The build was amazingly painless :)

I installed the resulting rpm and I think I have success.

The first time I ran barry backup, it reset my device halfway through.  Once 
the device rebooted I have backed it up 3-4 times without problems.  It 
appears everything is working as expected.  I did NOT have Mass Storage 
enabled during the backup.

My goal is to sync with Kmail, so I will report back with any problems or 
success.  

That is it for tonight!  Thanks for the help and thanks for barry!
