I've only had my Zaurus a couple weeks with limited time spent trying to configure it. These are some of the stray questions still bouncing around my Zaurus-newbie mind waiting for time to research them.
1) How do I associate my nifty shell scripts (with some extension?) to run the terminal and then run the script from the files tab? Why can't I get to / on that files tab (I know I don't need it. I want it.)?
2) What format of STRING is date -d looking for?
3) Can I have the linux man pages?
4) What's with the Suspend vs. Reboot vs. Where is Turn Off? Sometimes the power button suspends, sometimes it reboots.
5) Why can't I get nethack working? I seem to have lost the faq I saw but didn't have time to implement.
6) How do I make my terminal (qpe-terminal-vga 1.5.0-3) font larger?
7) What options are available to keep the time accurate?
SSH, SFTP daemons? Where was that FAQ? I have the Zaurus File Transfer at work on the Windows 2000 machine, so I can copy files. I have can telnet to my Zaurus at home from my Gentoo box over our network. Neither is perfect. If I want to ssh through the docking station to my zaurus, how do I set that up without interacting with or appearing on the work network? Is there a way to get the Zaurus File Transfer to deal with Unix->Windows carriage returns (as notepad can't and I don't want to change the files unix2dos on the Zaurus)?
9) Ethereal, iptables for 6000? Simple on/off script for iptables? How secure is this zaurus really?
10) Can I change the zaurus user password without "bricking" it? I changed the root password.
11) Can I reprogram the keys on my pocketop keyboard so that / and \ and ESC aren't buried? I sure wish I could turn one of those space bars into 3 separate programmable keys. Where is the backslash and ESC on the embedded keyboard?
12) Can we get some people to donate to Mickeyl (or appropriate coder) so he can buy a 6000 and get OpenZaurus for us so I can play with flashing?
13) Where is that developer's bootdisk (knoppix/debian?) that I saw in passing when I was first searching the boards and failed to mark? Is there a step by step idiot's guide to writing a simple 'hello zaurus' GUI application and creating the ipk using whatever "standards" are desired?
14) How do I change the default screen saver (Zaurus ad) to the fish (1.1.0) I installed?
15) Is there a basic newbie FAQ with these type things in it? Can we have a 6000 section over at Z wiki?
I'm sure some of these have probably been answered on the boards and the how-to's; unfortunately, there are only so many minutes available each day to spend searching for obscure information buried in the mountains of useful, though currently irrelevant, information.
Thank you for reading this far into the post, as well as any time you spend answering these, or pointing to the answers to these!
