Question Google Calendar and Gnome Calendar

Hi,

I found a nice trick in gnome calendar. This calendar can be synchronized with Google's calendar.
I found the explanation in the website below:

Cagdas’s Blog » Blog Archive » Google Calendar & Gnome

Unfortunately, it seems to not work in openSuse 11.

Someone knows how can I made the same thing in openSuse 11?
The problem is the path. There is no /usr/lib/evolution-webcal in openSuse. Maybe I just have to change the path, but I didn't find anything like it.

Thanks in advance for the support.

Question Re: Google Calendar and Gnome Calendar

In the website below says that the path is /usr/lib/evolution-webcal.

Novell: openSUSE 11.0: evolution-webcal

But I don't have this in my computer!

Hi, from the same blog post i got this:

Quote:
Note : evolution-webcal may be in different folders in different distros. (For example in SuSe, it’s in /opt/gnome/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal). If the above code doesn’t work for you, you can locate evolution-webcal using :
find / -name evolution-webcal
command.
Try that, good luck.

Question Re: Google Calendar and Gnome Calendar

In fact I try this and didn't work, because the evolution-webcal was not installed. So I opened YaST and installed.
Then I used the command to search the path of webcal and them the command to include the new google calendar.

Code:
/usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal my private URL
Everything work ok. Even now, if I try to put the calendar will say that the calendar is already assign. But, I CANNOT see the calendar in Gnome calendar. Should be working but is not working!
Everything is correct, everything goes ok, but at the end i cannot see my appointments.
