I am using OZ 3.5.4(rc) on a Zaurus 5500. I have a Targus "Universal Wireless Keyboard" that I understand can be used on the Z. So far I don't have it running.

I wanted to use the Z in Landscape mode and found that I can change the direction of the screen rotation in the Appearance settings. That is good because otherwise the IR port would be facing down and not be accessible.

Questions I have at this point are

What is the best way to attach the Z to the keyboard?

What package do I need to install in the Z to get it talking to the keyboard?

Anyone else doing this? I know that it does get used with the Z, but haven't got it going here yet.

Cheers
Ken

I have this keyboard and using a program called irk, that you can find on elsi, it works fine. Mind you, I use the Sharp ROM and I don't know if it works in Opie.
