Dear all,

I've recently installed OpenSuse 12.1 (KDE 4.7.2). I do use the Kontact application of KDE to read e-mail, store e-mail contacts and organize my calendar.

I would like to synchronize all the data kontact manages (mail, contacts, calendar, diary) between two computers (home and work). It seems that in the current KDE version most of the data is stored in a database file of nepomuk (soprano-virtuoso.db). Mail is stored in ~/.local folder.

So, how can I synchronize this data in an easy way for daily use ? I currently use Unison to synchronize the rest of my data (Desktop and Development folders). But how can I manage to do the same with the kontact data ? I assume that simply synchronizing the nepomuk and akonadi folders won't work (since they usually contain links to temporal files).

It does not bother me if other information (such as font size, desktop theme, ...) is also synchronized and if other solutions are available.

Thanks for your help,

Luis

The information stored in the Virtuoso database is simply an index - which is used for searching your email, contacts, etc. among other things. It does not store the master copy of the data in any form.

Your contacts and calendar could be in several locations depending on how Kontact set itself up on your computer. You can check what locations they are through the following procedure.

For your Calendar, open Kontact > Calendar, then right click on the name of your calendar in the bottom left corner, and select Calendar Properties. The path to your calendar should then be displayed.

Repeat the same procedure for your Contacts.
