The Zaurus 5500 was not ported to newer kernels, because the implementation from sharp/lineo was just to ugly. Instead a direct 2.6 port was started but not finished up to now (see http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~lenz/zaurus). I don't know if netfilter is activated in the OpenZaurus kernels, but you can build a kernel yourself and activate it (see www.openzaurus.org and http://oe.handhelds.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/GettingStarted for the toolchain and buildsystem). Pavel Machek has send some patches recently to lkml for the 2.6 kernel, but I don't know what the status is right now. marvin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
