Dear SIr(s),

My SLC-860 or C3000 Always hangs when downloading a file on the net using
Firefox or Dillo. Is it normal? Also, is there any other ways to download a file to
the Zaurus ?

BR,

Felix.

It doesn't matter what kind of file it is.
As long as you know the URL for the file you want to download, open up a terminal, and cd to the directory you want the file in, and wget http://blabla.com/file.ext (http://blabla.com/file.ext) and it will download it for you.
