| 00:02:23 | XXX1302 | I imagine for LoadingFromCF somebody would have dumped his "normal" linux installation as a file, is that wrong? |

| 06:30:21 | jungle | hi, im having problems with the WinCE restoration after using the familiar distribution, after putting the first .bin (flash_00c00000.bin) onto the ipaq through xmodem ( using the old method of winCE restoration ), it just comes out with an RXSTAT error. could anybody help with this problem? |
| 08:47:38 | alex | which are best games you guys recomend < I new some small games, which doesn't consume much resorces> |
| 08:47:53 | gopi | nethack. |
| 08:48:24 | alex | any more |
| 08:49:22 | Kero | tetris flavour xyz |
| 08:54:39 | alex | any body tested gps software on ipaq |
| 08:55:46 | Kero | thinks somebody has been playing with gps, but forgot who. |
| 08:55:54 | Kero | ask on #handhelds.org |
| 09:01:30 | XXX1302 | alex: russ was doing GPS. he seems to be gone right now |
| 09:02:14 | XXX1302 | alex: see http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/pyGPS |
| 11:12:43 | RoMo | hi |
| 14:36:43 | RoMo | hi nikos |
| 14:37:02 | RoMo | nikos do you know a pcmcia/cf usb adapter for the ipaq? |
| 14:37:54 | nikos | RoMo: To make the ipaq a USB master? |
| 14:38:37 | RoMo | yes |
| 14:38:54 | nikos | RoMo: I'm of the opinion that without a serious compromise, that that is not possible. USB masters have to be able to provide 5V of power to slaves, not something the iPAQ (or any handheld) can do without assistance. |
| 14:38:58 | RoMo | for USB IDE HDD and usb webcam |
| 14:39:02 | | nikos: excuse me? |
| 14:39:02 | nikos | ibot: ipaq usb |
| 14:39:07 | | See http://www.handhelds.org/pipermail/ipaq/2001-June/007453.html |
| 14:39:07 | nikos | ibot: usb master |
| 14:39:13 | nikos | RoMo: Read that post. |
| 14:39:25 | RoMo | ok thx |
| 14:40:45 | RoMo | hm bad. so i need expensive compact flash as diskspace |
| 14:41:18 | RoMo | btw i've ordert my ipaq today |
| 14:41:39 | nikos | RoMo: I'm instead planning to use NFS for external storage. |
| 14:43:17 | RoMo | over ethernet? |
| 14:43:23 | RoMo | but thats not portable |
| 14:43:48 | RoMo | there's no portable HDD which eth interface and nfsd on it :) |
| 14:45:52 | nikos | True. But the two main locations I plan to use the ipaq at for the immediate future both have good internet connections. I've decided to invest in 802.11b wireless and will have at least local portability. |
| 14:47:11 | RoMo | ah cool |
| 14:47:43 | RoMo | do you know sth about the compaq keyboard addon ? |
| 14:47:53 | nikos | the stowaway? |
| 14:47:55 | RoMo | yes |
| 14:48:00 | nikos | What about it? |
| 14:48:03 | RoMo | connection? |
| 14:48:06 | nikos | serial |
| 14:48:09 | RoMo | ah |
| 14:48:25 | RoMo | so i can use a serial cable instead of plugging it direct below the ipaq? |
| 14:49:07 | nikos | Not easily, it has the same sort of connector as the cradle I believe. |
| 14:49:21 | RoMo | hm |
