Also, it would be very nice if we can have an icon to manage the wifi connection.

I most certainly second that.  Of all the things that bug me about OZ/GPE on tosa, it's the management of wifi that frustrates me the most.  Ideally, nobody should have to drop into a terminal for something as common as bringing up/down an interface.  I'd be great to have an icon in the matchbox dock/panel/whatchamacallit that lets you enable/disable, view available networks, connect/disconnect, etc'.  GPE-Aerial seems to be designed to do at least some of this, but it's still a long way from usable (unless I'm doing something wrong).  Is anybody using aerial on any of the other Zaurii?  I don't know if it just needs 6000-specific fixes, or if it's inherently broken.

Anyway, like I said, I'll hop all over a test-release of this stuff and I'll do what I can in the way of bug-hunting.

I am working on getting my site, http://zaurus.thegrantclan.org backup and running.  I hope to have the time this weekend to update the List of Issues for GPE page to show what all issue we see as needing to be fixed to have a usable OZ/GPE on Tosa.  I will also try to post the list on here too.

I was using it on my C750 iirc. It probably just needs patches (as I think it's designed to work with CF wifi cards).

Patches welcome of course.

If you need and pointers, etc., try asking on #gpe, that way you'll get to talk to the gpe devs.

I'm trying to get a 6000W this summer. If any of the developer is interested, I'm willing to send my 6000L to one of the developers (for up to 6 months) for testing when I get my 6000W.

Hi,
I can contribute with another $200. I don't care very much about the alarm, but the keyboard is killing me. Also, it would be very nice if we can have an icon to manage the wifi connection.

Thanks

Jose

That would be awesome ! I will update the first topic in case some one decides to pick up this challenge and he might need a 6000.

Thanks !!

Radiance, I think he is offering the 6000L, not the 6000W.

Also, I am awaiting feedback on my withdrawal of contributions to Guylhem's rom. His project seems to be abandoned. If I don't hear from him saying his project is still alive, I would like to also contribute to this rom.

Hiya mate !

Yes i think too. I really hope for the first real stable fully working 2.6 kernel+gpe for the 6000 models. Even if no one of the current developers or visitors can't do it then if the reward amount is high enough i know various professional sources who are able to do it.

So i invite EVERYONE who has a 6000 and wants to use its full power in what is was meant to be then please contribute what you can miss. You don't need to pay it right now, but you word counts.

Thanks !!

I am using tosa and I am willing to contribute - with a little sum of money, but also with contributions. I am especially interested in using altboot, for I need a good managment of adresses and contacts (there opie is excellent), but also I need a good small computer for writing and so on (with gpe or e). As you can see from my last post in the overall release-thread I didn't manage to use altboot on tosa yet.
So, I am there willing to test and to discuss. Count on me!
