that's the first thing i always do. sorry for not mentioning it in my last post...  

i can ping the usb0 interface on the kububox but not the winxp box. and no internet of course.

Go trough all the thread again because at some point you had it working (without internet),
and for what you need to do maybe internet is not that important.

yeah, go back to where you could ping your windows box from your Z. that's when your network was set up correctly except you had no DNS on your Z and thus could not access internet. just add the DNS entry from your windows box into /etc/resolv.conf

If dhcp server is configured correctly it should distribute also the DNS ... not sure what happens with ubuntu since it's doing most of the work automatically.

w00t, w00t it works!!! i can ping'em all and i have internet access. meanie struck the final blow to my problem, all i had to do for internet access was to add the appropriate ip adress to the resolv.conf file. thank you meanie, thank you very much. and thank you luigi for you effort and patience.maybe i should add this to the wiki...

Man, everyone is either very impatient or exaggerates the problem greatly. Yes it takes a little while to load (I just timed it and it took 1 minute and 5 seconds immediately following a suspend with gtkterm2 open), but once up and running it is quite usable (I'm used to a PC with a 333 MHz processor [until I get the remaining parts to build my new PC which should be very soon], so I guess I've been forced to be a little patient, but it's quite usable to me.) Dillo is unusable to me -- it renders pages so badly that it detracts from its use. I prefer links to Dillo for some reason, and I'd much rather use firefox than either.

I usually have a firefox window open permanently anyway (unless I need the extra RAM for something else), so its load time is nill (I usually suspend with a terminal [gtkterm2] and a firefox window open and all remains fine after resuming). I guess one minutes just isn't the end of the world to me. If I'm just using my Z to check one very quick thing and then turning it back off, sure, I'll use links, but for any extended period of browsing I'd much rather use firefox.
