Title: Development?
Post by: BarryW on May 11, 2006, 01:22:53 pm

So how does one actually compile software for the Zaurus??  I've not been able to find a guide anywhere that works.  I found one that uses dsl for the host os, but it pukes about half way into loading the qtopia stuff.  Any way to actually do this on the Z??  I'm currently using the Cacko os on my 3100.  Seems to have the most usable features for me at the moment.  I'd like to use OpenZ but having to reconfigure the wifi every time I change locations is a pain.

There's a GPE binary sdk here: http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/mirror/www.op...able/3.5.4/sdk/ (http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/mirror/www.openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.4/sdk/)

I'm trying to track down the opie one, and when I do I'll post the url.

Hey Hrw, thanks!!  I didn't know that would work with plain old wep.  Something to play with this weekend!

I'd do wpa as well, but I built a digital picture frame out of a really old mac laptop, that just barely does 64 bit wep.  No way it would do wpa.  It boots os 9 off a 128Mb compact flash card and gets the pics off my file server.
