In my opinion you should use the PAN Profile to connect the devices. If
you don't want to share the internet connection of your mandrake box,
you do not need to worry about bridging. As a rough summary:

1) Install bluez-pan on both sides
2) Issue "pand -s -r NAP" on the mandrake box
3) make "pand -c aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:00" on the zaurus (replace the part
after -c with the bluetooth address of the mandrake box

And you should be connected. But still read the documentation. And by
the way, PPP over BNEP does not make sense.
