Actually, it was fujiplay that I had tried. But yes, gphoto 0.4.3 wasn't much help either. They say that their beta release, I think 2.0, is supposed to work. However, repeated attempts at compiling fell a little short of my expectations. As for the PDA, according to mailing list sputterings some have had success. Others have not. I have tried coldsync, gpilot,jpilot etc with little luck.. oH, cept for mad core dumps and a system freeze that can be duplicated on both the desktop and the lappy.
