Replying to my own mail here:
- first issue is solved, I had to enter some kind of special URL
(http://mydrupalsite/xmlrpc.php).
- second issue is worst than I thought: not only Drivel displays warning
dialogs, but it directly uses the username as a GConf directory name, so
special characters (space in my case) are rejected by GConf. Maybe
Drivel should urlencode the username ?
