   6 I recently bought a new (ok, a rather old ;-)) PDA, and I got used to
   7 the calendar and task features in Windows Mobile. Of course, I also
   8 wanted to synchronise all the tasks, appointments, contacts and files
   9 with my PC, but whatever I tried, it didn’t work somehow on my Ubuntu
  10 9.04 machine… So, I’ve got it now: I had do blacklist the `ipaq` kernel
  11 module which wrongly handled the PDA when I plugged it in (i.&nbsp; e.
  12 edit `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf` and insert the line `blacklist
  13 ipaq`), and then the [manual from ubuntuusers.de][1] suddenly worked
  14 like a charm :-)
