I finally got my Visor, with USB port, working with Linux, but it only works -- for me -- with jpilot and coldsync, as opposed to kpilot. Didn't do anything special -- the upgrade to Mandrake 8.1 was what did it. I haven't yet spent the time or trouble to try to get the Avantgo-type clients working. Not nearly as neat as the integration with Outlook -- and I can't get it to sync with Evolution -- but jpilot, while fairly primitive, does have the essential functions. I'd give it a B-. -- ------------------------------------- There's a widow in sleepy Chester Who weeps for her only son; There's a grave on the Pabeng River, A grave that the Burmans shun, And there's Subadar Prag Tewarri Who tells how the work was done. -------------------------------------
