ipaq
the hardware things
Yesterday I finally managed to flash GPE on my PDA. But, the problems just begun to appear.
Even with Windows Mobile installed I had problems when usign USB connection - with WinXP it didn't even identify device, in linux it at least listed the device correctly, although the ipaq.ko module, which takes care about managing ttyUSB device needed for communication, did not work - strange thing was that on other computers it worked correctly with this same ipaq.
So, I hoped that GPE image will help me to solve these problems, but it appears that this is not true at all. With GPE image, the device is not recognized correctly in linux nor windows. It seems that my USB controller doesn't like the ipaq. And, as if it was not enough - my laptop's wireless adapter doesn't have any native linux drivers, so I have to run ndiswrapper. The windows NDIS driver does not handle ad-hoc networking correctly, not mentioning that the AP mode was quite strange enough. Not having bluetooth adapter nor serial port on laptop, the only way for communication appears for now the IrDA.
