Some communications issues:
Using Qtopia 1.21 and setting PC Link to CF card, Win 98E recognises the SL-C860 and wants to install software for it. However, the drivers on the Zaurus disk that I have will not work (SL 3 drivers). The device will install but has \'problems\'. No further diagnostics available in W98 SE.
On an Apple Mac running OS 10.3 (Panther) this is plug and play although for some reason the device gets replicated ten times, i.e. the Mac sees the device as ten identical devices. This is definitely strange and makes me wonder whether Qtopia 1.21 presents the CF card to the USB channel in a non-standard fashion (?)
The Mac does not support USB networks as such, does however support USB printer sharing, so there may be a possibility to tweak :-). I don\'t have time to follow up on this but would like to state that the combination Powerbook running OS 10.3/Zaurus running Qtopia or pdaXrom seems a lot more attractive to me than \'Any Windows laptop\'/Zaurus. There is no doubt in my mind that Mac OS 10.3 os by far the best desktop opsys currently on the market.
To revert to the subject, I would like to hear from somebody who has solved the W98 SE issue - being in no mood to spend more money with Microsoft and thus not intending to \'upgrade\' to another useless opsys. :|
