Be warned, Debian is insanely slow on the Z.

Also, Debian is on 4.0r5 IIRC, no sense getting r3.



Is both eabi and abi slow on the Z? Why do we need a new kernel? Let's just stick with 2.4 and try to optimize pdaXrom.

Where can I get the source code? I would like to get involved and contribute.

Have a look at tyrannozaurus.com--the stuff should be there.



Thanks for the reply. Why would we need kernel 2.6? Why not try to optimize what we currently have?


pdaxii13v2 is already pretty well optimized-
perhaps not for speed, but for functionality and stability.

Without a drastic overhaul, the speed is not going to improve much.
If you're drastically overhauling, might as well move to 2.6 kernel (for extra fun).

Debian and pdaXrom cvs are using newer kernels, and are (generally) faster
if they're running native and not in chroot or from SD card.

I would imagine some small improvement on pdaxii13v2 is probably possible, if someone were
to spend a of time on it. There's more room for much more improvement on the other systems-
since stability and functionality and (some other stuff) is lacking.

What all these projects need is active developers and testers.
