Process For Building Pdaxrom From Scratch

[realm]

I have a C860 i've been compiling with for a while, and feel pretty confident about porting apps to it. I got a C3000 last week and have been playing with debian on it for the week, and I'm ready to start working on trying to build pdaXrom for it.  If anyone else has already started on this let me know and i'd be happy to help if you tell me what you need.

I'm looking for 2 main things here:

1. From the developers
- reccomended build order and problems / solutions I am likely to run into.
- lots of help

planning to pull most current config's from my C860 with pdaXrom on.

2. From other users - What features / Changed from default build options do people want to see.
For changes i'm planning on:
- building off of gcc 2.3 to be compatible with debian packages
- build all apps with ipv6 support that have it as an option
- make ipkg's from some debian packages that pdaXrom people commonly use

I am very excited about having pdaxrom on the sl-c3000. If you can pull it off, I would be happy to assist in testing your solution. I hope you get lots of help from the pdaxrom developers. Debian package compatibility sounds very interesting too. Success to you!

I would recommend taking a look at the openbsd Zaurus port (http://www.openbsd.org/zaurus.html) as they seem to have a working X server and may (it's less clear) have the touch screen sorted out.

It may be interesting to see if this is in anyway an optimal display server suitable for the 3000 and suitable for a port over to Linux.
