i've been using linux for over 10 years now. one of the single most frustrating aspects of the OS is how difficult it is to get a PDA to sync. i'm not sure why but every time i re-install fedora (or red hat when i was using that distro), the thing that caused me the most grief was the pda. and now - after so many years - i'm working with FC4 thinking "surely they've figured it out by now". well, they haven't. syncing a sony clie is still a nightmare. i can't get it to work and i'm about to tell myself my days with a pda are pretty much over. so does anyone know why such amazing developers within the Linux community can't seem to make syncing a pda a simple task? just curious. and if anyone has had any luck getting an out of box FC4 to sync with a sony i'd much appreciate any help. -- \||/ jack wallen, jr 00 www.monkeypantz.net > -
