41 | |||
42 | This package is for users of the Sharp ROM and clones. | ||
43 | Users of old OpenZaurus releases, which are gcc2.95 | ||
44 | compiled can use it as well. | ||
45 | |||
46 | All applications do need the | ||
47 | kmicrokdelibs_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||
48 | package to run. | ||
49 | |||
50 | phoneaccess_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||
51 | contains a command line tool for accessing mobile phones. | ||
52 | It is used from Kx/Pi to sync with / export to | ||
53 | mobile phones. | ||
54 | |||
55 | Unzip package and install the apps in the usual way. | ||
56 | |||

58 | 3) OpenZaurus ROM, gcc 3.xx compiled | ||
59 | ***************************************************** | ||
60 | File: kdepim_1.9.10_for_OZ-gcc3xx.ipk.zip | ||
61 | Package contains: | ||
62 | kaddressbook_OZ-gcc3xx_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||
63 | kmicrokdelibs_OZ-gcc3xx_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||

71 | |||
72 | This package is for users of the Open Zaurus ROM 3.3.6, | ||
73 | compiled by coredump (aka known as Hentges-Rom). | ||
74 | The programs may run on the new | ||
75 | Open Zaurus Release 3.5.1 as well, but | ||
76 | they cannot be installed there properly, | ||
77 | because the package manager of OZ needs more | ||
78 | information in the ipk files to install them properly. | ||
79 | |||
80 | If you have Open Zaurus 3.5.1, you should use | ||
81 | the packages of the OZ 3.5.1 feed, | ||
82 | compiled and maintained by Hrw. | ||
83 | Do not ask the OZ people about problems with these | ||
84 | packages, they cannot help you. | ||
85 | |||
86 | By the way, I cannot help you as well, because I | ||
87 | am not using OZ. | ||
88 | |||
89 | All applications do need the | ||
90 | kmicrokdelibs_OZ-gcc3xx_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||
91 | package to run. | ||
92 | |||
93 | phoneaccess_OZ-gcc3xx_1.9.10_arm.ipk | ||
94 | contains a command line tool for accessing mobile phones. | ||
95 | It is used from Kx/Pi to sync with / export to | ||
96 | mobile phones. | ||
97 | |||
98 | Unzip package and install the apps in the usual way. | ||
99 | |||

101 | 4) Linux Desktop (SuSE 9.1) | ||
102 | ***************************************************** | ||
103 | File: KDE-Pim-Pi-1.9.10-SuSE9.1.i586.rpm | ||
104 | Package contains: | ||
105 | KAddessbook/Pi | ||
106 | KOrganizer/Pi | ||
107 | PasswordManager/Pi | ||
108 | KPhone/Pi | ||
109 | KTimeTracker/Pi | ||
110 | and the needed microkde libs. | ||
111 | |||
112 | Download file and install it on console with | ||
113 | su | ||
114 | rpm -ihv KDE-Pim-Pi-1.9.10-SuSE9.1.i586.rpm | ||
115 | |||
116 | If you want to be able to sync your phone via infrared | ||
117 | (if you have an infrared port on your laptop) | ||
118 | please make an online update to get infrared working. | ||
119 | |||
120 | If you want to be able to sync KDE-Pim/Pi with the KDE-desktop | ||
121 | please update SuSE 9.1 to KDE 3.3.0 or higher. | ||
122 | NOTE: | ||
123 | Currently only syncing of calendar data is supported by | ||
124 | the KDE-Pim/Pi <-> KDE-desktop sync feature. | ||
125 | Possibility of syncing addressbook data will follow before | ||
126 | release 2.0.0 of KDE-Pim/Pi. | ||
127 | |||
128 | Here is the information, | ||
129 | provided in the rpm file about the content: | ||
130 | |||
131 | KDE-Pim-Pi | ||
132 | Version: 1.9.10-SuSE9.1 | ||
133 | This package contains the platform-independent PIM programs from | ||
134 | www.pi-sync.net, compiled for SuSE 9.1: | ||
135 | KTimeTacker/Pi | ||
136 | KPhone/Pi | ||
137 | KAddressbook/Pi | ||
138 | KOrganizer/Pi | ||
139 | PasswordManager/Pi | ||
140 | These applications do not need anything from the KDE-desktop | ||
141 | at all to run on Linux. However, there is a dependency from | ||
142 | two KDE libs, because a small command line program is included | ||
143 | to make it possible to sync with the KDE-desktop applications. | ||
144 | These applications are independent from the KDE-desktop | ||
145 | environment. That means, nothing of your existing | ||
146 | KDE-desktop setup will be changed, or any data | ||
147 | (calendar-addressbook) used by the KDE-desktop | ||
148 | applications will be changed or accessed. | ||
149 | These applications stores their data and config in | ||
150 | $HOME/kdepim/ | ||
151 | However, because the same file format is used, | ||
152 | an easy exchange of data with the KDE-desktop | ||
153 | is possible. | ||
154 | A small command line program is included | ||
155 | to make it possible to sync with the KDE-desktop applications. | ||
156 | You do not need to call this program from the commandline, | ||
157 | it is called from the KDE-Pim/Pi apps when you choose there: | ||
158 | Sync with KDE_Desktop. | ||
159 | If something is going wrong, please start the | ||
160 | KDE-Pim/Pi program itself from the console to get detailed output. | ||
161 | After installation, you should have a | ||
162 | PIM-pi | ||
163 | folder in your KDE start menu, where you can | ||
164 | start the applications from. | ||
165 | These programs makes it possible to sync your Zaurus easily | ||
166 | (with the KDE-Pim/Pi programs running on the Zaurus) | ||
167 | with the KDE-desktop calendar/addressbook data. | ||
168 | If you want to use that, you have to update your | ||
169 | KDE-desktop to version 3.3.0 or higher. | ||
170 | Actually - after the (non difficult) configuration is set up - | ||
171 | with two mouseklicks on the Zaurus, | ||
172 | the Zaurus syncs with the corresponding KDE-Pim/Pi | ||
173 | program on the Linux Desktop which syncs automatically | ||
174 | with the KDE-desktop data. | ||
175 | If you want to use the KDE-desktop calendar/addressbook applications, | ||
176 | just install these apps in this package and use them as a syncing tool for the | ||
177 | Zaurus <-> KDE-desktop sync. | ||
178 | The sync requires a network connection from your Zaurus to | ||
179 | the PC. A detailed Sync HowTo is available in the | ||
180 | Help menu of the applications. | ||
181 | These applications makes it also possible, that you can sync | ||
182 | (or just export the data to) your mobile phone with your | ||
183 | data of the KDE-desktop calendar/addressbook applications. | ||
184 | This is tested and working for Nokia mobile phones, | ||
185 | it may work with others as well. | ||
186 | (More info about that: -> Sync HowTo) | ||
187 | NOTE: | ||
188 | You have to make an online update in SuSE 9.1 to make it | ||
189 | possible to get the infrared connection working, such that | ||
190 | you can sync your (Nokia) mobile phone via infrared. | ||
