Ian and Ochal,
Thanks for your answers.
Ian, I didn't know that page existed. I will read it and try to follow
the directions. At first look it seems rather cookbook-like but I will
look more carefully.
Ochal, I use the USB connection and the complaint of msynctool is
related to the fact that there is no multisync-0.90 directory in my
system and all pictures are in the
directory /usr/local/share/multisync/pixmaps.
I don't know where multisync gets it's local directory information.
Furthermore, when I connect my device I get a correct connection and the
device shows automagically on my desktop and in nautilus.
I can see the directory of the PDA in the nautilus window just as e.g.
an external USB drive: its label is Mobile Device
However, I just tried your suggestion of "synce-matchmaker status" and I
got a segmentation fault. Maybe I have to restart Linux.
Any other suggestions?
