I have done the following steps to gather information on this report: 1. backup with pilot-xfer 2. altered my palm PIM data 3. sync with kpilot 4. another backup with pilot-xfer 5. restore of the first backup with pilot-xfer
Indeed, I could confirm that alterations done on the palm calendar were lost after the sync with kpilot. I will use the diff of the files of backups referenced on items 1 and 4 as a baseline. To begin with, let me analyze the to-dos. I used the following sequence of commands: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:palm$ read-todos --file backup/ToDoDB.pdb -w> todo1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:palm$ read-todos --file backup_20070302/ToDoDB.pdb -w> todo2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:palm$ diff todo1 todo2 711a712,727 > Category: Personal > Priority: 1 > Completed: No > Due: Thu Mar 1 00:00:00 2007 > > Description: call rachel > Note: > > Category: Personal > Priority: 1 > Completed: No > Due: Thu Mar 1 00:00:00 2007 > > Description: matricula especial > Note: > Note that 2 recently added to-dos were lost. Repeating similar actions on the calendar databases yields similar results. Therefore I could generate a repeatable situation where syncing causes data loss. Tests were run on an up-to-date (as of today) debian etch. If I can get my hands on another device I will test again to rule out device problems. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
