Alternative ROMs
When you receive your Zaurus, the default ROM is the Sharp ROM. This has the advantages of
- Small, fast to run PIM applications
- Lots of software available
- Works out of the box!
This is a new page so please see the discussion.
Cacko
Cacko is based on the Sharp ROM and therefore is also quick at running PIM applications. It also features:
- 100% English
- Updated versions of the default Apps
- More device drivers
- Compressed filesystem, freeing up more space on the internal flash for your own needs
OpenZaurus
OpenZaurus was an attempt to make a fully open source version of the Sharp ROM.
OpenZaurus, often referred to as OZ is now superceded by Angstrom.
pdaXrom
See pdaXrom
Also there is pdaXii13 and Angstrom.
