Does anyone have experience with the Zaurus 5600 and linux?

by Arturo

>From the looks of it, 5600 connectivity through usbnet is still pretty bleeding edge. Has anyone out there gotten the Zaurus SL-5600 connected with a linux desktop? Sharp was not kind in getting compatibility with linux. Anyhow, if anyone has any pointers let me know. Thanks Arturo -- Arturo <postgres(a)sedo.net>

FWIW, I am currently using zope to develop a website and like it very much. --mike On Sat, 2003-04-26 at 12:21, Brett Russ wrote: > OOPS, hit ctrl-enter by mistake.

Toshiba e330 + Linux

by Chuck Haines

I've had a Toshiba e330 for about 3 months now, however it runs windows and I can't interface it with my linux machine. I was curious if anyone had any information regarding putting linux on one of these babies. I plan to get a wireless card and GPS adaptor for it soon, so how would that affect it. Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm going to look into migrating to Zope. This site lists a bunch of CMS's, see the listings under Open Source: http://www.cmswatch.com/ContentManagement/Products/ I like what I saw so far on Zope, and there have been recent articles about it in Linux Journal (or Magazine...).

I use/maintain a phpnuke site and it works OK but my biggest complaint about all these CMS's is how fragmented the support, documentation, add-on downloads, etc are for at least phpnuke and postnuke. Check out http://www.opencms.org in your search too, but even this does not impress me too much. I'm anxious to hear anyone's feedback on this issue because I would like to break out of the nuke mold because every nuke site pretty much looks and feels the same. BR

A bit off topic - phpnuke et al.

by Stephen C. Daukas

I'm posing this question becuase I'm betting some on this list have ventured down the path before me... I'm looking to avoid having to keep up on the latest and greatest web development stuff just to have a useful an interesting site. So, I'm looking for something like phpnuke to convert over to. I am aware of phpnuke, and other similar packages out there. I'm planning on downloading nuke to see what it can and can't do... I wouldn't mind having control over things providing I have the time, but am to the point where I do not want ot have to write code every time I get an idea. I already have a job... So, anyone have a favorite tool, collection of tools, etc., that they would recommend for a person site that supports logins, discussion threads, etc.? Steve
