Jpilot offers this. I like the fact that is has calendar/todo/address/memo all from one application. Plus I was able to import from my Palm.

You need to modify the jpilot.sh script. It is located in /var/lib/install/usr/lib/jpilot/
It is a short script.
I added the following line:
export TZ=EST (I am in New York (Eastern Standard)) change this to your Time Zone
I added this line right before the line that calls jpilot, it is the next to last line.
Hope this helps.

Owner is user/users as seen below
-rw-rw-rw- 1 user users 0 Apr 15 10:55 DatebookDB.pc3
-rw-rw-rw- 1 user users 54155 Apr 9 13:18 DatebookDB.pdb
When i add a new entry it goes to DatebookDB.pc3 and shows up as usual. But none of the entries from DatebookDB.pdb shows up. I tried to
mv AddressbookDB.pc3 AddressbookDB.pdb
but then jpilot chrashed when switching to the Addressbook application.
Any other ideas?

I found something which is a major deal killer for me.
You can do recurring appointments, but they can only be a certain numerical date of the month.
You can't set a pattern which is "1st Monday of every month."
Gosh, 75% of my appointments are some variation of this pattern. Without this function, GPE-calendar does me little good.
Am I missing something here? this seems like essential functionality.
Has this feature not been ported yet or is it simply the way GPE does this on all platforms?
Are there other calendar programs that let you do this?
