Smallest Penguin on the block?  I have a Ipaq 1930 that would just love to have a personality shift.  Will Opie run on it?

The short answer is I don't know.

Check out http://openembedded.org/

Then look at the familiar mailing list at handhelds.org (familiar is the iPAQ equivalent of OZ and they have all merged into openembedded now) so you can see whether anyone else has been using your machine.

If it's not too new (the iPAQ), the chances are good that it's already supported (otherwise it may be being developed), but that's just my gut feeling no promises.

Good luck,

The question is rather if Linux runs on it supporting the peripherals.
See http://www.handhelds.org/projects/h1900.html for that matter.
Once that's done, porting Opie is a breeze.
