Okay, I just got my Handspring Visor to sync, and load the PDB files with my machine. The Handspring Visor, though ridiculously less functional than the Palm Pilot, *will* sync with Mandrake, it has full support for Palm-based devices built into the kernel. I started here: http://www.linuxpda.com/visor/howto/current/syncsoftware.html which led me to here: http://www.pilot-link.org/ You can install Pilot Link with: urpmi pilot-link >From then on my info is specific to the Visor, but once you have Pilot Link installed, you should be able to load the files from your device to your computer, See "man pilot-link" for more info on that. At that point Evolution should be able to import the data. Also check out: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnome-pilot/ and http://jpilot.org/ These are GUI front-ends, I believe, but I have not checked them out yet. -- HaywireMac Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: nodex.sytes.net ++++++++++++++++++++++ You can always pick up your needle and move to another groove. -- Tim Leary
