I am really new to Linux. I have an HP iPaq 4700, I am using OpenSuSE
11.0.
I have tried to follow the instructions for installation of SynCE and
Opensync form source found at http://www.synce.org/moin/FrontPage.
At this time I been able to execute odccm -f in a terminal window and the
iPaq give an audible sound in response.
When I then execute the sync-engine command I receive the following.
I really am not sure where to begin except with the following. This is what
appears in a terminal window when I plug the iPaq in:
sync-engine

As new as I am to all of this I must apologize to Guido Diepen for going
around the protocol and contacting him directly. The frustration level
unfortunately reached a rather hig level. Guido graciously replied with the
following:
Three things:
* Do you have a firewall set up under linux?
-- Yes but it is not running.
* Does synce-pls work for you? (or pls, synce-pls is the command name for
ubuntu/debian)
-- No. Tried both although I am using Open SuSE 11.0
In my limited understanding of how this is all supposed to work I sense that
tthe iPaq "Opus" is being recognized by "Rex" the HP laptop. But that
something isn't completing in this process.
When I then try to run sync-kpm-0.11.1 the following displays:
ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal:

If any one can help I would greatly appreciate it. I do not want to back to
the dark side having seen the light. Thank you in advance.
