Comments on: Syncing with PC/Mac via Rsync On Your Jolla http://www.jollatides.com/2013/12/23/syncing-with-pcmac-via-rsync-on-your-jolla/ Sun, 29 May 2016 11:57:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.0.13 By: Jonny http://www.jollatides.com/2013/12/23/syncing-with-pcmac-via-rsync-on-your-jolla/#comment-24274 Thu, 21 May 2015 08:54:31 +0000 http://www.jollatides.com/?p=2438#comment-24274 tried it without knowing. Sailfish is a very average-joe-linux-distro-like system so i thought it might have rsync installed as well. scp works for sure and it’s fast. rsaync also works, but is it fast? Not so, unfortunately. Transferring files gets me around 100kB/s which is really no good. In most cases you’ll be better off using scp instead despite the fact unlike rsync it will restransfer files that are already there.

That needs to be available cross-platform ideally, for those that run Win, or OSX, as well as the Linux users. I found OVI great with my N900, less so with the N9 as MS, err I mean Stephen Elop, err for what ever reason, as the N9 never really worked well with any PC connectivity program that was any use. In fact I’d say that I had more contact/calendar corruption/duplication errors due to OVI with my N9 than anything else. So whatever the PC sync app does, it needs to work and be stable.

It isn’t really a viable alternative for me given I expect (and use) the transparent sharing of info between mac laptops and my phone.

As well as Linux there is OpenBSD, MINIX, Solaris, Apple etc.. etc

http://releases.sailfishos.org/sdk/latest/mer-tools/builds/armv7hl/packages/

e.g.

dosfstools, emacs, git, htop, less, mtools, parted, powertop, rsync, ruby 1.9.3, strace, sudo, tcl/tk 8.5.12, zsh. nano

Although rsync is installed on my 1.0.1.12 (Laadunjarvi) (armv7hl). Will have to find some spare time to try it out:)
