General Discussion / Who are you and where are you from?

« on: June 11, 2004, 12:40:33 pm »

Keith, 19, Oregon State University. I\'m sure you can figure out my occupation. I use my zaurus for general tinkering and for road trips where it\'s a pain in the butt to lug around a whole pile of equipment... also for random wardriving. Kismet + Z5500 + D-Link DCF-660W = Bliss

For traveling in the US you can try zroadmap.

Except its home site of http://roadmap.saigon.net no longer exists (there\'s a http://saigon.net, but no such subdomain any longer).

try going to http://roadmap.digitalomaha.net/. That link ought to get you there.

General Discussion / Encoding Video for Zaurus...

« on: May 23, 2004, 03:42:02 am »

Poking around google, I found quite a few helpful websites. And just after I\'d gotten done writing a howto, I found a site that wrote a script to do EVERYTHING for you and was even more optimized. That\'s just my luck for me  http://cmisip.home.insightbb.com/zaurus.htm

General Discussion / Encoding Video for Zaurus...

« on: May 23, 2004, 01:25:01 am »

I use linux for my desktop OS, so I have all these neat vorbis tools. When my SL-5500 arrives next week, I\'ll mess around with video encoding and post a method for making optimal files based on arbitrary inputs (not just NTSC DVD files). (I\'ve spent a fair amount of time messing with video encoding starting from the days of the original DivX ;-), so I\'m fairly sure I\'ll be able to figure out what works  )

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / 3.3.6pre1 fails to recognize an 802.11b CF card ??

The linux command to reinsert a pcmcia/cf card is cardctl insert
See if this works.
