If you want to sync with a device, where KO/Pi is installed, you can easily get the remote file via network with the build in file transfer feature "Pi-Sync": You have first to enable file transfer on the remote device: - Start KO/Pi on the remote device. - Choose Menu Synchronize-Enable Pi-Sync. - Choose a port number, where KO/Pi should listen for file sending requests. Valid port numbers are numbers between 1 and 65565. Do not specify port numbers, that are used by other applications. A port number between 9000 and 9999 is most likely not used by another application. The default port number is 9197 for KO/Pi. If you specify a port number, which is already in use, you will get an error message when closing this dialog. - Choose a password. - Click OK. Now KO/Pi will send the calendar data via the network, if some other device is sending a "please send calendar" request on the given port using the given password. If you want to be sure, nobody can access your calendar data, simply disable the file transfer feature on the remote device after the syncing is done by choosing: Menu Synchronize-Disable Pi-Sync. On your local device, create a new profile and choose profile kind "Pi-Sync". Fill in the needed values: - Password for remote access: The password you specified on the remote device. - Remote IP address: The IP address of the remote device. - Remote port number: The port number you specified on the remote device. Now you can syncronize your local device easily with your remote device. This works well for all platforms KO/Pi is running on, e.g. syncing a KO/Pi on Zaurus with KO/Pi on Windows is now very easy. c) Remote file Syncing with the profile kind "Remote file" is performed in three steps: i) download the remote file to your local machine to a temp file ii) sync with this temp file iii) upload the synced file to the remote device The down-/uploading if i) and iii) is done via a command line command. Please specify the download/upload command ( like scp, ftp, ...) and the file name of the temp file in the corresponding fields. d) Mobile device (cell phone) + Note: On the Zaurus you have to install the kammu_xxx_arm.ipk package + to be able to access mobile phones. We mention here only KO/Pi, but the same is valid for KA/Pi. Note: It is only possible to sync a mobile phone with one particular device running KO/Pi. If you want to be able to write data of more than one device to the mobile phone (e.g. from your Zaurus and from your Windows Laptop) do not sync with the mobile phone at all, but use the "Export to phone" functionality from the different devices. Using "Export to phone" makes it not possible to get back data from the phone, if it was changed there, of course. If you sync with the phone, do not use "Export to phone" from any device. (And do not sync, as mentioned above, from any other device with that phone). It would delete the needed information for syncing with that phone! We are using Gammu (Version: 0.98.9) ( http://freshmeat.net/projects/gammu/ ) for accessing the phones. Note: You cannot use the original Gammu for syncing KDE-Pim/Pi, because we have modified the original version to make it useable for syncing! Gammu allows access to many phones in many ways (Irda, Bluetooth, serial,...). The recommended phone access using Gammu with KDE-Pim/Pi is Irda (infrared). Bluetooth access is disabled on the Zaurus, but may work on Windows. Please look at the Gammu homepage and documentation about more details configuring Gammu how to access your phone. If you have problems accessing your phone, start KO/Pi from the konsole and you will get a more detailed output what went wrong. About Gammu from the Gammu homepage: Gammu (formerly known as MyGnokii2) is a cellular manager for various mobile phones/modems. It supports the Nokia 2100, 3100, 32xx, 33xx, 3410, 35xx, 51xx, 5210, 5510, 61xx, 62xx, 63xx, 6510, 6610, 6800, 71xx, 7210, 7250, 7250i, 82xx, 83xx, 8910, 9110, 9210 and compatible and AT devices (Siemens, Alcatel, Falcom, WaveCom, IPAQ, Samsung, SE, and others) over cables/infrared/BlueTooth. Here is an example what to specify to access a Nokia 6310i via infrared: On Linux (Zaurus): I/O device: /dev/ircomm Connection: irda Model: <leave empty> On Windows: I/O device: <ignored - i.e. leave empty> Connection: irda Model: <leave empty> Here is the overview from the Gammu documentation, how to specify the connection settings for I/O device: Connection: Model: Note: The documentation uses the term "port", where we use the term "I/O device". Note: You do not have to create/change the gammurc configuration file. That will do KO/Pi for you. Note: For a known model, leave "Model:" always empty, such that Gammu can auto detect the model. # This is a sample ~/.gammurc file. # In Unix/Linux copy it into your home directory and name it .gammurc # or into /etc and name it gammurc # In Win32 copy it into directory with Gammu.exe and name gammurc # More about parameters later # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- [gammu] port = com8: #model = 6110 connection = fbusblue #synchronizetime = yes #logfile = gammulog #logformat = textall #use_locking = yes #gammuloc = locfile #startinfo = yes #gammucoding = utf8 [gammu1] port = com8: #model = 6110 connection = fbusblue #synchronizetime = yes #logfile = gammulog #logformat = textall #use_locking = yes #gammuloc = locfile #startinfo = yes #gammucoding = utf8 # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Now info about "Connection" parameter and connected with it port type # (more about port types later) # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
