Joep,

I have just confirmed 'libopensync' is not required when multisync .82 
is compiled from source.

I compiled multisync .82 on an x86 box running fc6, installed, and 
successfully synced evo2 with Zaurus opie. There were a couple of speed

  <pre wrap=""><!---->Dan,
Thanks for your speedy answer. I was away so couldn't react sooner.
Well, my experiences are different but it can well be that multisync
won't work reliably in 64-bit systems, probably due to the fact that
there is confusion about the directories where the different componens
are stored.
I have multisync plugins in "/usr/lib64/opensync/plugins/" and
"/usr/local/lib/multisync/" where the plugins are stored.
But I will try to start fresh and compile it myself not relying on the
updates from Fedora as they definitively don't work.
I also don't know is the programs of synCE interfere with multisync.
With the synCE programs I can read and write to my PDA without any
problem.
Anyway, thanks for the info.
Joep
