Seems that OpenBSD is becoming a real force to be reckoned with on the Zaurus with firefox2 running on it (I tried Angstrom but none of the web browsers run at all!)... my first question is whether I could use my prisms2 CF wifi card and get WEP and WPA/PSK encryption to work?
Congrats for achieving so much, I am truly impressed. |

New question:
I find that if I ifconfig wi0 down and take away the wifi CF, plugging it in again fails to connect to the network. ifconfig wi0 up doesn't do. Reboot gets it working again. Any hint? |
