Well.. I use jpilot because it works rather well and I really don't do a lot of
entry using it anyway, so maybe there's advantages to using Kpilot I don't
realize.
I might have to go that route.
But last I tried, the malsync plugin for jpilot worked without any
hassle. I had to compile it, but it wasn't any big deal.

malsync needs pilot-link and such to compile, so you'll need devs and such if there
are RPMs for it. Otherwise if it's all from source it should work without any big
problem.
I had the malsync libs already installed. The problem is that the kdepim
package, during configuration, is supposed to be able to detect the
presence of the malsync libs (libmal, specifically), and then compile the
malsync conduit. It hasn't done so for me since the latest update to
kdepim for RHL9 (can't remember the version, now).
I don't use AvantGo that much myself as I don't sync daily,
but it's good otherwise. Only thing that bugs me is that places like Yahoo and
movies.com 'forget' your settings and when I go to look for a movie or such I just
have the screen telling me to put in my information and it'll pull next sync, which
doesn't help at all since I'm usually out somewhere.
That was the one reason I dropped Yahoo from my sync AvantGo channels.
I can provide you a binary of malsync if that'll help, let me
know.
Sure.
