Out of curiosity, how big is the community.zaurus.com and the devnet board mirror?

I have several hosts, and would be willing to provide a mirror if i have the space.

5x00 General discussions / could use some help please

« on: February 11, 2004, 12:43:59 am »

oks so i posted before but got no response, so i thought maybe ill try one last time in hope someone can maybe help me

i\'ve looked everywhere, and i still cant find the answer..  my zaurus won\'t connect to my wireless network, even if i put in all the right information and tell it to go..  i have 2 5600\'s, and one is running tkcRom and the other is the Sharp Rom that came with it..  the sharp one will connect every once in a while, while the tkcRom rarely..  other wireless devices work fine, but the zaurus\'s dont

if anyone could please help i\'d appreciate..  it\'s at the point where i almost wanna just return or sell these cause i dont want to deal with the hassle anymore.. i love how they have linux, but i kinda just wanted this as a toy and the pim\'s are just a handy feature.. if i can\'t get on the wireless network, it loses a good chunk of value to me..

but anyways, if someone could please help, i\'d really appreciate it.. thanks

Security and Networking / Zaurus 5600 - Inconsistent Wireless Connectivity

« on: February 10, 2004, 12:44:17 am »

I\'ve tried searching all over and I can\'t find what\'s wrong.

Yesterday, my WiFi card on my Zaurus 5600 was working perfectly fine.  It connected and all was well.  Then it randomly just stopped working, and I have no idea why.

All is set up fine.  I even ended up reflashing completely to no avail.  I tried the card on the other Zaurus 5600 and it wouldn\'t work there either.  It\'s an AmbiCom WL1100C card.

I thought maybe it\'s the router, so I tried one of my USB Wireless plugs in my computer and that one connected fine.

Has anyone ever had this problem before?  It says \'Initiating\' and the green light turns solid on the WiFi card, but then it stops there.  I\'m thinking maybe it\'s a DNS problem?

Thanks for any help.

General Discussion / MircoDrive\'s work with Zaurus?

« on: February 08, 2004, 03:40:15 pm »

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if microdrives work with the Zaurus?

I was looking at this:

http://www.slickdeals.net/forums/showthrea...&postid=0#post0

and for a 4 gig microdrive (you gotta pull it, but still) for only ~200 bucks, I\'d be more than happy.. but I dont know if it\'d work.

5x00 General discussions / wellenreiter help :/

« on: February 07, 2004, 04:32:31 am »

hey was wondering if anyone could help me..  i have an sl-5600 zaurus and i\'m trying to install wellenreiter onto it, and i have the zynergy5600 rom on it..  i am trying to install from the console using ipkg-new because apparently ipkg doesn\'t like it, but it says that it has dependencies of libc6 and libqte1.. well, they\'re both installed as far as i can tell, and i even tried reinstalling libqte1 but it says there already is a file in its spot and to remove that first..

has anyone successfully gotten wellenreiter to work on the 5600?

thanks for your input

General Discussion / OZ Production halted?

« on: February 03, 2004, 12:19:08 am »

has there been a halt in OZ production?  i have a 5600 and i\'d really like a stable version of 3.2 :/

if anyone knows, please let me know..  it looks like i might be sticking with the default Sharp rom seeing as how i dont wanna deal with the GUI installer not working in Zyn and i can\'t find a compat tkrom
