The turn-off-with-hardware-button-and-can't-turn-back-on, is, I believe, a known issue for the 3.5.2 5500 images. This is supposed to be fixed in 3.5.3 (and presumably any pre images which are produced from now).
I'm using the pre image at the moment, and still encountering the problem.
You can suspend using the on-screen menu (annoying, but just as a stop-gap measure it's not so bad).
Guess I need to get into the habit...
Are there any screenshots anywhere (I don't want to flash Cacko just to look at this). Is the source available? I'm sure that if there's a decent feature in there that you want, you could either submit some patches to the opie-network application, or sumbit a request for added functionality.
I'll see what I can scare up. I am told by a friend with a Collie that the networking app is the same one from the Sharp 3.10 ROM. The app allows you to have multiple profiles. (Which works for me since I have wireless for home and work.) When the wireless card is in the CF slot, there is a network icon in the taskbar. Clicking on it allows you to select a profile, and start or stop the wifi subsystem.
Another thing I noticed with OZ is that it automatically defaults to IPv6 networking. I think this needs to be an option rather than the default, since 99% of existing networks are IPv4, even today. In fact, I am having problems with wireless networking on my home network. I am hesitant to mention this, since I have not had time to troubleshoot the problems. I flashed the unit at work yesterday, resolved the IPv6 issues, and did some downloads (using the old feeds, for the time being). I packed up and went home, and tried to bring up the Zaurus on my home network (which I had successfully done under Cacko by just plugging in the ESSID, WEP key and IP address). Under OZ, the ESSID, although I changed it to HOME, was flashing WORK with a bunch of random characters, and I have been unable to get it going. I hope to look at it more today.
I also noticed that usb networking with my Debian laptop doesn't seem to work under OZ. I get usb 2-2: device descriptor read/64. error -71 when attaching the cradle + Zaurus. In Cacko, it works.
The fact that cacko works and OZ doesn't is possibly due to the fact that they are identified as different USB devices (iirc) - you probably had to alter the modules which were to be loaded for the Z's VID:PID when you started using Cacko - you need to do the same for the OZ VID:PID (which are the same as the older 2.xx ROM ones).

The only modules I altered were in OZ for the IPv6 stuff. The Cacko usb and wireless networking "just worked." Is there a page or reference on setting this up? What I am having to do to get packages onto the Z at the moment is to suspend and pull the SD card, which is a less-than-optimal solution...
Thanks,
