Armadillo BlueCF card installation help needed
« on: November 19, 2003, 05:49:17 am »
Heya all

I just bought an Armadillo BlueCF CompactFlash card, it\'s covered by the Anycom Bluetooth driver, the instructions are at http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/bluecard.html

I just want to know how do I install this on my Zaurus? I\'m not sure of the procedure to install drivers on a Linux PDA (a desktop is fine, but a PDA, well I don\'t want to risk bricking it hehe).

Anyone here got the Armadillo Card working with the Z? I know it\'s possible

Which ROM/Zaurus do you have

There is this howto for the latest Sharp ROMs:

I think that card should work out of the box as Armadillo is the old name for the Bluemonkey card, which works fine.

I got it working by means of a PPPD script, but alas NetFront needs it to be registered connection in the network window :/

For that, you need the Bluetooth Network Applet:

I have that installed, it\'ll connect to the phone fine but when it tries to dial a GPRS connection my 6310i will say \"Subscribe to GPRS first!\", yet it works fine by that pppd script.
