rdesktop

[jason pratt]

FC1 comes with rdesktop 1.2.0 and i need to get 1.3.0, are there any
rpm's available for fedora for rdesktop? their website lists 1.3 but
both yum and apt-get repositories list 1.2.0 as the latest..

Anyone?

I made a 1.3.0 rpm. If you need it, send me a private mail and I'll send
it to you (it's only 70kb...)

I built 1.3.0 from source, it's a very simple build.

I should mention that 1.3.0 caused my RH9 system to freeze. I haven't 
had time yet to research the problem, or see if the problem exists on 
Fedora.

OOC - Fedora and RIM - Anything that allows Sync??

[Chris Stankaitis]

Ok, this is a little off topic, but I am sure that this question is one 
that a bunch of other people may be thinking of somewhere in the back of 
their brains...

Is there anything that has been developed for Linux that allows a 
Blackberry RIM to sync up / backup?? I would love to be able to sync up 
my blackberry to a calender, my memo's todo list and most importantly my 
contacts...  Right now I am forced to boot into VMware to sync the thing 
against windows, something linux would be much better.

I just wanted to take a sec to ask real quick if there was anything that 
I could snag and give a shot... given the amount of Sysadmins and Geeks 
here :) I am sure at least a few of you out there have RIM's

Thanks!

Chris

I'm not sure about Blackberry, but I think multisync will work.

Thanks for the link... FYI I checked with the Dev's on IRC, Blackberry 
is not support at this time.

Sorry to hear that. What kind of synchro do blackberry use? If they are
using syncml it /might/ work, but if Bo Lincoln told you it's not
supported he's certainly right, for he's the man to know.

Or is there a way to access the hard drive? Samba, ftp, http, whatever.
Then you can still try to rsync the files...

Blackberry RIM uses a Java and J2ME environment, and they provide a JDK 
for Blackberry development right on their site http://blackberry.com

The multisync guys didn't think it would be unheard of that a patch for 
it could be submitted to the code, but as I am not a Java programmer It 
shall not come from me unfortunately.

1.3.0 is currently in updates-testing.  Please seriously test it and 
provide feedback on fedora-test-list.

I downloaded the source from www.rdesktop.org and compiled it myself. 
Works sweet, especially because you can connect to the console on 
Windows 2003 servers in this version.

1.3 is in the Testing updates area, available here:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/updat...

or from your favorite mirror.

This just came through in the past couple of days.

HTH,

Any feedback, is this testing update working for you?
It it crashing in any cases where the previous version used to not crash?

I need some feedback in the positive direction if you want to see this 
move into official updates.

I had tried rdesktop 3 which I'd built from source, but it caused my 
machine to hang. I just installed the rpm from the above url on Friday 
and so far no hangs, though I haven't had enough time with it to be 
really comfortable yet.

I'll be using it more this week, will provide feedback either way.

I use it for more than 2 weeks EVERYDAY, and for now on, NO problem to

Can you please test the official updates/testing rdesktop-1.3.0 instead? 
  Without testing feedback it will not become an official update.
