Normally you can find the actual deb packages under http://people.debian.org/~ovek/harmattan/. The package of SyncEvolution 1.3 is not listed (yet). I asked the developer for the new version and hope we'll get it soon. From my understanding v. 1.3 is a freeze of v. 1.2.99.4-2_armel.deb, so if you like you can try that version, it's from 09/06/2012.

As soon as I get a reply from the developer I'll post it here.

Hope that will help you. I also have still v. 1.2.2 running on my N9.

Have a nice evening.

Default calendar, contacts. Haven't tried other calendars, as I'm not using those. Can't remember about notes, but fwiw Buteo does sync those.

YMMV indeed.

Hey kermit,

thanks for the information. I thought that was released for Harmattan but the informations on the syncevolution homepage are a little bit confusing for me.

I am really looking forward for 1.3 because notes and tasks should be supported :-)

News from syncevolution: please have a look at http://people.debian.org/~ovek/harmattan/, version 1.3 arrived.

Thanks to the developer crew, especially Ove and Patrick, we now have a complete sync tool for calendar, contacts, tasks and notes. How many competitors have such a tool?

Let's go and start your engines;-)

Hmmmmm,

I have a problem, I downloaded the deb and it said that it was invalid. So instead I installed it through the terminal. That seamed to work fine. But now I can't seam to find an account in the accounts app. I installed it as root, could this be the problem?

Vromoth

Edit: This its what I get if I install through terminal without root.

Code:

 dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.downloads/sync*.
deb
BUG(2): Package syncevolution: '/home/user/MyDocs/.downloads/syncevolution_1.3-1_armel.deb' != '/home/user/MyDocs/.downloads/syncevolution_1.3-1_armel(2).3-1_armel.deb'
dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege

To install SyncEvolution you need to be root (devel-su / rootme).

dpkg -i filename.deb

should install SyncEvolution.

Configuration can be set up at /home/user/.config/syncevolution/

And please read as much as possible at http://wiki.maemo.org/Sync/Usage_of_syncevolution and at https://syncevolution.org/documentation/getting-started.

There will be no SyncEvolution account visible at your N9, but you can manage everything from the command line.

How do you uninstall it? I've been having extra battery drain since I installed it.

Edit: Ok, uninstalled it. It's not the battery drain. Time to reinstall.

great software!

set it up with funambol and synced contacts, calendar, tasks and notes :-) I was waiting very long for solution of syncing tasks and notes :-)

I am not so familar with the terminal commands. How can I configure it to sync only tasks and notes?

Is it possible to execute terminal command/the sync by an icon?

edit: here http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=4588&page=2 is a old GUI but I didn't get it working.
