General Discussion / free phone over wifi software

« on: September 11, 2004, 09:28:41 am »

Skype writes this type of software for pc, mac, linux and pocket pc.

http://www.skype.com

It would be great stuff on the Z.  You need to be at a hotspot to use it, but still.

Is there anything like this out yet for the Zaurus.

Software / Mplayer sound out of sync.

Has anyone gotten VLC to work on the Z?  Last time I checked, they had code, but didn\'t have Zaurii to try it out.

For Sale / Wanted / FOR SALE: Zaurus 5500 with Sharp 3.1 Rom installed

« on: February 12, 2004, 07:41:00 pm »

I have a Zaurus 5500 for sale that is in great condition, very lightly used. I bought it last summer and shortly afterwards I got a C760.

I don\'t really need two Zaurii, so I will gladly part with the 5500.

Comes with the manuals, doc, charger (whatever came with it).

I will only sell to someone in the US.  $165.00 plus shipping, and insurance.

I sell stuff on ebay:  my account there is lbotez and I am a squaretrader.

I will take paypal, or money orders from the US post office.

email me at:  ldbotez@hotmail.com

General Discussion / QUICK START USER MANUAL FOR THE SL-C860

Hey, thanks! I \"cough, cough\" lost mine. Yeah. Like I ever got anything but a Japanese one which was totally useless (since I can\'t read Japanese).

what\'s the best bluetooth adapter for the Z?  Using the new cacko rom??

I\'m not finding much on these. Is anyone using one?  Is it worthwhile? Can you use in with a mac?

Cxx0 Hardware / Linksys WCF12 problem solved

« on: December 03, 2003, 08:52:11 am »

Solved Linksys WCF12 problem with new cacko rom

after installing this rom in my 760, my wireless connection no longer worked.

I got it to work again by editing the /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf file.

go down to the part where is says

card \"Linksys WCF12  etc...

edit it so it looks just like this (instead of what they got there)

card \"Linksys WCF12 11Mbps 802.11b WLAN Card\"
version \"Linksys\", \"Wireless CompactFlash Card\"
bind \"prism2_cs\"



for some reason the \"extra\" stuff that\'s there prevents it from working  correctly (at least on my system); not sure why but once I did this it works just fine now.

before I edited this file, I noticed that when I put in the linksys CF card, the little green light was constantly lit.  Once I corrected it, the light came on only when I connected it.

Accessories / phone connector?

« on: July 02, 2003, 11:32:03 am »

well, I think this should work... anyone doing this?  

    ZThinCable M-DB9-1  from serialio.com

LG 510/5350/4NE1/VX-1/VX2000/VX4400 Data Cable from http://www.westsidecellular.com/store/lg510kwa.html

You hook them together.  

There\'s some software called \"Dial Manager\" from serialio.

However I read there are bugs with this software with the 3.10 rom (which I am using)... so you can\'t access your email.

Or you can skip the software and use the terminal...

Is there some other software that works better, or what does everyone do???
