[ILUG] XDA pro mini s + Linux

[Andrew Court]

Hi,

Yesterday I bought the XDA II pro mini S Smartphone. The phone is pretty
sweet. I like the optional pull out keyboard. The only thing I don't like is
that it requires you to use ActivSync to connect to a PC. There is a tool
called SynCe but I have failed to get it to run. I have tried it on Ubuntu
Dapper, and Ubuntu Edgy, installing all libraries I can think of but when I
run the command "synce-pstatus"

I get:

synce-pstatus: Unable to initialize RAPI: An unspecified failure has
occurred

Has anyone managed to connect their PDA/PocketPC to linux?

Thanks guys,
