All,
My apologies if these questions have been asked before. I just acquired a Zaurus SL-C3200 from Conics (Thanks, Brett!). It has the default Sharp ROM. ROM version is 1.02 JP. English conversion was done by Conics. I am facing 2 problems: 1. When I insert an Ambicom WL1100C-CF card, the card is recognised and the little globe icon appears. However, the little light on the card itself does not turn on. When I try to connect to a network, it fails. I tried the card on a Sigmarion III running WinCE4.1, and after installing drivers, the card worked fine. 2. I am using Win2K. I followed Trisoft's instructions from here for the sync installation. I used the USBDrivers/Network directory from the Sharp CDROM for the drivers. Drivers were installed, and when I plugged the Zaurus in, it was recognised. The NDIS driver shows up in Device Manager. However, as per the instructions, when I try to telnet to the device, or ping it, it fails. Am I doing something wrong ? Or is there a systematic issue that causes both problems ? Please help! -grump6 |

@Capn_fish:
I installed Cacko after backing up the Sharp distro, and now the Ambicom works and I am able to connect to the internet. Thanks very much! About the Usb-over-telnet, there are some things at MyZaurus that I will try before I report any progress on that. And now of course I have more questions! Has anyone tried a Cisco VPN client like vpnc on Cacko ? I downloaded and installed a vpnc ipk from the above link, but it doesn't work - complains about libcrypt.so being missing. So I was wondering if anyone has built a VPN client and VNC viewer for the Cacko distro ? Thanks, grump6 |
