How To Configure Network In Pdaxrom?

Hi all, I've just got myself a belkin usb-ethernet adapter. It works fine, pegasus drivers are loaded ok and i can ping things on the LAN. I did:

ifconfig inet eth0 up 192.168.254.254 netmask 255.255.255.0

this gets things working at least on my LAN. i guess i need to use route to get access thru my router to the whole net.

but, i was just wondering whether there is an easier way......? The lan/wifi settings program that comes with pdaxrom seems to modify /etc/sysconfig/network but i am not sure how to make use of these settings.

so i'd just like some pointers. thanks

Best Wireless Lan Card For 3100 ?

Hi all. Time to order an 802.11 card so that I can use my 3100 for email and a bit of web which is what I got it for!

I've been looking through these forums and I see that almost all the cards work. So I was wondering which is the best? I've seen a few cards on ebay, like ambicom, symbol, and some others. can't seem to find dlink.

Anyway, i was wondering what is best for signal strength, reliability, smallness (not blocking headphones, stylus) or other criteria?

TIA. Emil

Can You Flash From An Mmc Card? (same As Sd?)

Hi all, I want to change the rom on my 3100. (I know I must only use 3100 specific ones.) My question is:

As far as the Z is concerned is there any difference between an mmc and an sd card? I only ask because I want to flash but I only have an mmc card handy. It works fine in the sd slot, and I've read that there is no difference on the Z anyway, as it doesn't use the SD's DRM "features". But flashing is a risky business, so I just want to make sure that I can do it with an mmc card!!

Thanks,
Emil

Need To Convert My 3100 To English!

Hi all, just got my 3100 delivered from pricejapan. It looks great but I need to convert it to english!

I thought this would be straightforward, as I read this:
"Launch the terminal and change the /home/zaurus/Settings/locale.conf file to use 'en' instead of 'ja'."

But I can't figure out how to launch the terminal! (or reboot for that matter.)

Could I do this if I get it connected to my PC? I haven't managed to get the USB connection to work yet either, I'm using Ubuntu but I've got a PC with Windows if necessary.

Please help, i'm itching to use my zaurus!!!!

TIA. Emil

C3100 In Uk: Do I Need An Sa70?

Hi all, I'm in the UK, amazon.com are doing the SA70 for $25 but they won't ship outside the US!
It's available for 50 euros here:
http://www.handheld-linux.com/wiki.php?page=EA-70S

so what's everyone else in the UK doing? 240-110 adapter? using a cheap charger? (my nokia phone charger says its 5.7 v)

I realise this has been discussed before... but couldn't find any discussion of using a 240-110v ac transformer.
