Ajzaurususb 0.3.2 Update Options

[dhns]

I have posted a small update:

http://www.handheld-linux.com/swi/showdetail.php?app=4378

It is recompiled on MacOS X 10.4.6 with Xcode 2.2.1 (PowerPC Macs only). But if you have no problems, there is no need to update.

It also adds some configuration for accessing the Motorola A780 as described here: http://wiki.openezx.org/Get_a_shell

thanks

As soon as I own one.

Up to now they have not really been convincing to me. I would get the same amount of memory and harddisk capacity as in my old G4 PowerBook. Well, the CPU speed would be factor 5 - but I am still the slowest part of the system.

So, let's cross fingers that Apple is announcing a dual core Merom based MacBook Pro soon That would be a real replacement for the long awaited PowerBook G5.

But if you have one, you can try it yourself. It is open source. But I have no idea if it works.

To my understanding, some things will cross compile and other things need alteration. If this is the type that does not need alteration and someone can give me instructions on how to do it, I'll compile it. I have gcc4, XCodes and a MacBook pro, so I should be able to do it.

By the way, the MacBooks are nice. It gets warm, but so did by old Dell Pentium 4 clunker.

Ok, let's try a "remote control"...

You need to do:
1. load AJZaurusUSB sources
2. read the HOWTO-MAKE
3. open the AJZaurusUSB.xcodeproj
4. press Build
5. a Terminal will come up.
6. type 'make'
7. it will ask for your system admin password
8. it should compile without errors
9. Save everything
10. Save everything again
11. Now comes the critical point: type 'make load' (it may ask again for the password)
12. connect the Zaurus through USB
13. The Mac might now Kernel Panic every moment....
14. if not, go to the Network Preferences and look if a "new interface" was found
15. configure the interface
16. try to ping the Zaurus

If everything works fine, type 'make install' to keep the driver permanently on your Mac (even after a reboot).
