HELLO
sysops... gurus... wanna.. new... all ;)

My (very) first time with Zaurus, (old) model SL 5500, strong Arm 1110 rev 9
Unpack :
Zaurus + dock + SD 128 + flash 128 + wifi Dlink + multicards usb reader + cables ;)

"kernel card 3.1.2" = kernel 2.4.18 rmk7 pxa3 embedix 021129 compiled by mickey@r2d2 ;))
OpenZaurus 3.5.2
Opie, Open PalmTop Integrated Environnement v 1.1.7
Zaurus has been 'burned, cuted' ... cool
tests : gfx rendering : 2560 gops/second // ram performance : 26.5 mb/s Cool!!!

All right's :))

Well done, The USB Connection :
my workstation :

So :
connect dock with usb and power. Connect Z on.
LSUSB:

Perfect ...

Go into network configuration ...
shutting down shoreline firewall /etc/init.d/shorewall stop (or service shorewall stop or CLICK MandrakeControlCenter - system - services - click on "stop" shorewall )
--CLICK MandrakeControlCenter - Internet/network - Share internet - select usb0 - patient... OK
simply restart firewall (it adapte itself on new nat connection)
Zaurus :
--CLICK settings - network - usb0 - ip/dhcp (hehehe) - start OK
Open Opera : all works good ;) I am on the internet with my Z throught usb connection.
30 secondes for all settings. (2 seconds for settings, 28 seconds to view step-by-step the logs)
roxor.

note : in fixed ip : 4 secondes without log view ;)

Wireless ? too... :))
 now : i have the choice between 3 sync applx. Opie, sync and other one... I think it s not hard to sync with Kontact ;)
