Hi, I've just read a nice review of opensync and a how-to on synchronizing KDE-PIM with a SE W810i using Kubuntu 6.06 and the deb packages from "jahn"'s repo (http://www.in.fh-merseburg.de/~jahn). In the review (Norwegian magazine: Linuxmagasinet), they've got it working using kitchensync-opensync.
I myself have a SE T610 and use Fedora Core 6, thus I tried the opensuse repo:
http://repos.opensuse.org/OpenSync/Fedora_Core_5/, but I ran into trouble when trying to install kitchensync-opensync. Actually my first problem is connected with gnokii, but excluding it solves that one:
# yum --enablerepo=OpenSync update
...

---> Package gnokii.i386 0:0.6.14-23.3 set to be updated
--> Running transaction check

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libbluetooth.so.1 is needed by package gnokii
but
# yum --enablerepo=OpenSync --exclude=gnokii update
works.
So, when trying to install kitchensync-opensync, I get:
# yum --enablerepo=OpenSync --exclude=gnokii install openobex openobex-devel libsoup-devel wbxml2 libopensync-devel libopensync-tools libopensync-plugin-file kitchensync-opensync libopensync-plugin-kdepim libsyncml libsyncml-devel libopensync-plugin-syncml
...
Error: Missing Dependency: libkitchensync.so is needed by package kitchensync-opensync
Error: Missing Dependency: libqopensync.so is needed by package kitchensync-opensync
This might have something to do with what Matthias Jahn wrote in his post to opensync-users 2006-07-04 21:48:
"due a incomplete change (libbluetooth1 -> libbluetooth2) in debian sid
upstream is libopenobex1 and therefor syncml currently not installable."
Anyway:

I've searched the opensync-users list, and the wiki, with no luck. Any hints appreciated.
