I've tried to flash my C3k with gpe-image-spitz-20051021200253.rootfs.tar.gz, and it does boot and start nicely.
I'm unable to suspend or switch off the Zaurus, though, the on/off button doesn't work, and issuing a "apm -s" command in the terminal result only in an error message (device busy or something like that, can't recall exactly, and I've reflashed Opie since...)
Did anyone else try GPE on a C3000 recently? It looks good, and promising, but if I can't turn it off it's a no go for me...

You may wish to see in this thread which is dedicated to 3.5.4RC bugs, maybe :

It is exactly the same with me. apm --suspend doesn't work. It even freezes my machine sometimes.
The official GPE image with the 2.6 kernel is still very buggy. I want to help its development by reporting bugs just I need to find some time for it )

FYI : This is a known problem in the bugtracker : http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458 (http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=458)
No solution yet I'm afraid

Hmmm... This bug reporting tool is a bit tricky to use... I did a search, restricting the results to the Zaurus platform, but that bug wasn't reported. And there are far too many results if you don't restrict the search a bit... <sigh>
No solution yet I'm afraid
Yes, it seems so. Not quite ready for the final release... OTOH, waiting a bit more can't hurt! Thanks for the pointer, anyway.

Which kernel is this with? If it's 2.6.x I'm sure RP will be interested to hear from you on #irc (but if it's 2.4.x then I think you may have to look into it yourself as no-one really wants to delve into that and the push is to get 2.6.x working well on all of the Zaurus devices)

I'm pretty sure it was a 2.6 kernel, but since I've reflashed Opie and Sharp ROM since, I can't tell for sure. Will reflash GPE in the near future and come back with details... (sorry, but I need a working Zaurus this week end for a trip! )

I've seen that post, but since I'm working on a C3000, not a 5xxx, I've not pushed the matter any further...

I found out by accident that you can get a C3000 to suspend in GPE 3.5.4RC. Just unlock the battery cover and it will suspend. You can then re-lock it. Press the power button when you want to resume.
Now if I could just get my USB host, GPRS, and SD to work...
