Linux Issues / Linux to 5600 sync success... (kind of)

What will this script actually do?  The README states it will start Konqueror with samba, but is that just for file browsing?  Will this assist in dsturium\'s method of syncing with linux?

It basically just lets you do file browsing, but it lets you get a connection between your Z and a linux box with greater ease assisting with step one in dsturium\'s method. With these scripts, you shouldn\'t need to mess with the usb.handmap file, creating an ifcfg file for the usb connection, etc.

Cheers,

I prefer tkcRom over Zynergy.  I can\'t stand the non-working GUI Installer on Zynergy.  That\'s just me though..

I only had a couple of quirks with the gui installer. One with libcrypto, and one with gnu-utils. I was able to get around them by doing a command line install making sure I did su first.

Cheers,

There seems to be an unstable branch version of an OZ rom available for the 5600, but it doesn\'t have the updater.sh file with it. I tried flashing it using an updater.sh file from a different rom, but I was left with a rom that wouldn\'t boot. A rom you might want to check out is Zynergy5600 which is what I\'ve now switched to after using the stock Sharp rom, the tkcrom, and my attempt at flashing OZ. It\'s based on the Sharp rom and is pretty nice. The download site for it has a number of handy network apps with it, and you can pick up the other stuff you need from the Zaurus Software Index.

Hope this helps.

For anyone who wants a quick way to connect the SL-5600 to a Linux box without the manual configuration, I\'ve modified the zaurus_check scripts by Flavio Gargiulo. Zaurus Check 5600 can be downloaded from http://www.design-wave.com/files/zaurus_ch...5600-1.0.tar.gz.
