For Zaurus charging you can use:

- Sharp Zaurus charger
- Compaq/HP Ipaq chargers (h3600/3800/3900/5400/5500 atleast)
- USB Hub chargers (not every - need to check each time) - I charge my Hub with Zaurus charger
- PSP chargers

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Help New Kernel For Pdaxrom

« on: July 05, 2007, 02:23:51 am »

Oh yeah, I forgot you guys were gods and did everything right.

Atleast we got 2.6 kernel working on all Zaurus models

Everyone should just RELAX -- if the pdaXrom devs want to do their own thing, let them -- it is after all their distribution to develop. Although merging pdaXrom and Angstrom would help in some respects, it would also prevent innovation from competing teams -- which is a good thing in my opinion. Also, the two distributions are completely different -- if they merge both sides (or at least one side, and I can tell who that would be) would lose out on some existing functionality (like being able to use a real web browser...but I won't go there).[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=164327\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I am not talking about distributions merge but kernel work merge. For me pdaX distribution can live like it is now and I think that it will evolve and works. Do some stuff from it go to OE based distros (and vice versa) does not matter too much for me. But I do prefer to have more cooperation work when it comes to kernel stuff. For example during 2.6.22 development PXA suspend/resume got broken - finding why took many hours but finally Richard came with fix. I would like to avoid situations when pdaX kernel team will invent same stuff as OE Zaurus kernel team (and vice versa) in same time.

Why is it that Angstrom/OZ people ALWAYS seem to want to conquer the Z market? The way I see it, the more options the better. It would be nice to allow sharing of code liberally throughout in both directions to avoid reinventing the wheel, but past that, it's not worth discussing unless both sides are clearly interested.[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=164327\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

For apps/distro work I do not need pdaX/Angstrom/OZ/etc merging. But for kernel I want to have cooperation as we spent too much time to get it working.

louigi600: does it really have to look like "we, pdaX team, will get recent work done by OE Zaurus kernel hackers, add own hacks/patches and ignore the fact that we can cooperate" again?

Think about cooperation from beginning - otherwise you will get back one day just to see that we already done some of your fixes and that your new code need to be cleaned up, split into separate patches and updated to our code.

It would be intresting to merge our efforts ;-)[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=164268\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Our kernel team is open for properly made patches. Keep in mind that any Zaurus support patches which goes to mainline goes through our kernel guys.

I am checking oesf forum once per week. If someone want to contact me then please use email or Jabber instead of "private messages" which forum offers - I will ignore them as I do not have them in my email client so I cannot check what I wrote to user ZY or UPO.

General Discussion / Comparison Of C700/750, C860 And C3x00

« on: May 29, 2007, 08:04:31 am »

When it comes to thickness I would go to c760/860 with small battery (need extra buy). When it comes to features I would go to c1000 or c3x00 (depends on cash). If you want to try few distros before taking decision then avoid c3000 as (IIRC) pdaX does not support it as good as other models.

c1000 has same thinkness as c3x00
