Re: Syncing one of multiple calendars

[Callum Macdonald <gnome-pilot-list callum-macdonald com>]

Hey Matt,

Thanks for the quick reply. Starting with versions...
gnome-pilot-2.0.15-5.fc7
evolution-2.10.3-2.fc7
evolution-data-server-1.10.3.1-2.fc7
pilot-link-0.12.1-6.fc7

Ok, it's all coming back to me. I looked into this in the past with my 
Treo 650 and the problem seems to be the Evolution timezone bug[1]. The 
output from gpilotd is:

ecalconduit-Message: pre_sync: Calendar Conduit v.0.1.6
ecalconduit-Message: Using timezone: 
/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20011030_5/Europe/London
(gpilotd:15956): gpilotd-WARNING **: Synchronisation failed!

I have my old Treo 650 which I'm no longer using, so I'll try some 
experiments with it. I know that I can get my calendar to sync once, so 
I'll try that and see what output I get from gpilotd. If anyone has any 
suggestions on what I should try, please let me know and I'll post the 
results back here. I'll also post a comment on the timezone bug report.

Cheers,


Callum.
