Title: Sharp Zaurus linux in 2025
Post by: tree2025 on July 16, 2025, 04:43:56 am
Hi all,
Believe Zaurus on Liunx was not as active as years ago, I search around (google) found lots of topic about pdaXrom, some guidelines....etc

Like to know if there is complete guide I can follow to run pdaXrom ? I saw lots of feeds already gone or 404.

The reason behind is, I want to use this little device to play old dos game (Ultima V, ....etc)

thank you in advance and cheers!
Kent ;)

Welcome! PDAXRom is a good choice for the Zaurus, AFAIR it's the only one which allows to overclock the CPU on-the-fly, at least on the SL-Cxx00 models. Thanksfully, the official install guides and FAQs can be still recovered from archive.org:
