Depends on the ROM, but fn-c or shift-fn-c may work.

Pround to announce that I am the new owner of a Zaurus 860!! So, I am messing around with the networking stuff... started a ping...

How do you stop the ping? Usually it is a Ctrl+C but... you all know where I am going with this.

Thanks in advance for such a trivial thing.

Use "ping -c 5 ip"

yeah, that is what I started doing... old habits die hard...

Anyone have a key combo for a break sequence?

ctrl-c works as usual, you just need to know how to generat a ctrl-c. I have a Sharp SL-5500 so YMMV.

Depending whether I have the Sharp ROM or the OZ 3.5.1 ROM I have to use Fn-C or Shift-C to generate a ctrl-C

What about on pdaXrom? Anybody know how to do Control+C there? Specifically, I'm interested in how to do it outside of any GUI in case it varies.

I'm using an SL-5500, pdaXrom version 1.1.0beta1, and as far as I can tell there's no way to do it initially but I'll gladly accept a solution that requires configuring something first.
