The qtopiaKABC plug-in is for old non DTM Qtopia Pims only.
This plug-in works with xml based addressbooks.
There is no solution currently for the DTM addressbook.
On a newer Sharp Rom (using DTM), you can install
Opie(for Sharp Rom) libs+adressbook and the opieKABC plug-in.
That works with KO/Pi.
*************************************************************************
Q:
Why do I have two pim tabs?
A:
The original tab has the 'PIM' tab and kopi is installed in the 'Pim' tab.
The difference in capitalization keeps them separate.
That is no packaging bug.
This is a feature.
The author of KO/pi has a Tab 'Pim'.

+When installing kmicrokdelibs_1.9.2_arm.ipk (or newer version)
+I get a "This application depends on other programs".
+What programs I am missing?
+A:
+You probably do not have to care about that.
+kmicrokdelibs_1.9.2 will come with some
+resource plugins, which needs additional libraries.
+(E.g. libopie1, if you want to use the
+opie resource connector in KA/Pi).
+If you do not have this libraries installed,
+you simply cannot use the resource.
+To make it clear:
+If the libraries are missing, the applications
+using kmicrokdelibs will start,
+because the resources are plugins.

Q:
How do I change the timezone? All my appointments do show 6 hours ahead.
A:
The default timezone in KO/Pi is CET.
CET is (GMT +01:00) or (UTC +01:00), i.e GMT=UTC .
To adjust the time of your appointments,
you have to change the timezone and reload your calendar without closing
the application and without saving the data.
"Without saving the data" is very important.
Note that KO/Pi has build in auto saving.
If auto saving is performed after changing the timezone and before
reloading your calendar no times will be changed.

KDE-Pim/Pi is split up in five different
packages now precompiled for Sharp Zaurus:
--kmicrokdelibs_1.9.2_arm.ipk
The libs are needed for any
of the following programs:
--kaddressbook_1.9.2_arm.ipk
--kmicromail_1.9.2_arm.ipk
--korganizer_1.9.2_arm.ipk
Independ from that, there is the alarm applet
available for KO/Pi, which also offers
quick access for a new mail or
showing the addressbook.:
--korganizer-alarm_1.9.2_arm.ipk
Independend means, that the alarm applet
does not need any of the libs or programs above to run.
But it would be quite useless without these programs.

KO/Pi and friends are now installable on SD-Card!
It is recommended to install all libs and apps
on the SD card or all in the internal storage.
There may be problems, if this is mixed.
4)
Fixed two bugs in the alarm notification on Windows.
5)
Great improvement!
KO/Pi uses now the latest version of libical.
Libical is the library which actually reads
the calendar files and extract the data from it.
With the old version, there were problems
(crashes or program hangs) when licical did read
files, which were not stored from KO/Pi.
I do not know, if the new libical works perfect,
but actually it works much better than
the old version.
There are no problems with compatibility with
old calendar files of KO/Pi, of course!
+6)
+New in KA/Pi:
+Opie addressbook resource connector available!
+You will need libopie1 and the opie addressbook,
+of course.
+With the Opie addressbook resource connector,
+you can access the Opie addressbook readonly in KA/Pi.
+If you want to edit or import the data into KA/Pi,
+do this:
+a) Create an Opie resource.
+ (Menu: Settings-Configure Resources).
+After configuration and restarting KA/Pi you should see
+the Opie contacts in KA/Pi.
+b) Select some or all Opie contacts.
+(NOTE: +++++
+To know exactly, what contacts are Opie contacts,
+do this: Choose menu:
+View-Modify View - TAB Fields.
+Select in the above list "Resource" and click
+down arrow to add it to the "Selected fields".
+Click OK.
+Now you have a new column "Resource" in your list,
+where you can see, what an Opie resource is.
+++++ NOTE end.)
+Ok, we do have now some Opie contacts seleted.
+(Use SHIFT or CTRL key in order to multiple select).
+c) Choose menu: Edit-Copy.
+d) Choose menu: Edit-Paste.
+e) Select the resource, you want to add the contacts to.
+Congrats! Now you have read/write access to the copied
+opie contacts as "real" KA/Pi contacts.
