Yes, according to the About page, my device runs:

Microsoft® Windows Mobile Version 5.0

OS 5.1.1702 (Build 14366.1.0.1)

Processor: ARM920T PXA27x

I suppose I should try the steps for WM2003? My French is a bit rusty, but the commands themselves aren't localized. I'm sure I can muddle my way through it.

I didn't remember enabling backports repositories, so I checked, and none of the backports repositories are enabled.

Also, I blacklisted the ipaq module as you suggested, and still no change. Dmesg gives:

usb 5-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

And, rndis0 is still not appearing in the firewall configuration wizard.

Note: I am indeed running Mandriva One 2008 Spring.

Now that synce-kpm shows no errors when I run it from a terminal, I am left trying to get it to recognize my device. I noticed in the wiki that the Mandriva firewall can interfere with the connection, but "Ethernet: rndis0" is not listed with "Ethernet: eth0" when the screen specifying interfaces to apply the firewall to come up, so I am guessing the problem is with rndis, but I am not sure. When I plug in the device and run dmesg this is what I get:

usb 5-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
ipaq 5-2:1.0: PocketPC PDA converter detected
usb 5-2: PocketPC PDA converter now attached to ttyUSB0

The device is an iPAQ running WM5. Any ideas about why synce-kpm is not seeing my device? I tried closing it and opening it while the device is connected, but still no change.

Yes, that solved the error about the sync-engine not running and all that. Now I need to get the machine to see my PDA. Thanks for the help!

I followed the suggestions in this post, but when I entered sync-engine in the terminal (as user) I got the following:

bash-3.2$ sync-engine
SynCE sync-engine starting up
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/bin/sync-engine", line 84, in <module>
configObj = Config.Config(progopts)

fsrc = open(src, 'rb')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/config/config.xml'

This is using Mandriva One Spring 2008. Any ideas?
