Title: Usb Client And Host At The Same Time?
Post by: dproldan on June 19, 2006, 10:09:52 pm

Would it be possible to use the internal usb port that arlbertr uses while keeping the external one as a client/host?

  Finding a way to do this,  would allow us to put usb BT dongles or a USB microdrive inside the C1000,  efectively turning it into a C3x00 of sorts.  I don't want to loose the client functionality.

Uhm,  nope.   This is from his site:

I've never used the Zaurus as an USB client (nor have any desire to do that in future), so I decided to drop usb client functionality completely and to change the Sharp's OHCI glue driver accordingly.

  Maybe, I hope,  it's only a matter of modifying the driver.

yeah forgot about that, i belive that its better with a 2.6 kernel as its al done automatiaclly (no need for the glue) but i tend to agree with him, i raley use client mode i prefer usb ethernet adaptor + ssh

Yes, it's possible. You will need to change the driver, thou.
