For now, I have uploaded the latest basic user-space binaries separately to ftp://rococosoft.com/pub/zaurus with instructions for installing them in the right places. It would not be too hard to write packaging scripts for them --- indeed this is something anyone could do using the ipkg-build script; volunteers? > The OpenZaurus project will use a 2.4.19 in future and hopefully they > include my patch. Do anyone have details about this. We only have 2 Zauruses here (one with the older Sharp ROM and the other with the new one) so I can't try OpenZaurus :-( Steve -- Stephen Crane, Rococo Software Ltd. http://www.rococosoft.com steve.crane@rococosoft.com +353-1-6601315 (ext 209)
