Title: Working Hardware List: Ovation U727
Post by: propofol on May 23, 2010, 10:41:57 pm

I have recently bought a Netwalker from Conics.net. The lack of built in wireless, limited memory & incompatibility of Qt/Opie with X being the main issues. So far this seems to be a very good upgrade from the Zaurus 3100.

I thought it may be useful to start a list of compatible hardware.
As a start: I am happy to report that the Ovation U727 works +/- plug & play. The only step is to do and eject + umount /dev/sr0 first.

Regards,
Stefan

Usb - ethernet dongle based on pegasus II chipset - works fine no need for additional drivers.
usb bluetooth 1.2 dongles (pentagram and no name) works fine. Just plug and watch if led blinks.

Usb - ethernet dongle based on sr9600 chip - no success.
BT 2.0 (mini dongle from pentagram) - not working (but I did not tried too hard).
