12:15.13danger_Afternoon peeps. Can I ask some advice on getting Linux running on an iPAQ RX1950 please?
12:15.21danger_(or is this the wrong chan?)
12:19.15FR^2http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/HpIpaqRx1950
12:21.22danger_Thanks FR^2 I've been reading that page already, I just had a few questions to ask. Mainly which compilers work, I assume (well surely it must) it has gcc g++ etc.. but is Java supported (and gfortran, perl, python etc..)
12:22.20FR^2Hehe, I myself can't help you. It's been a while since I ran linux on my old Compaq Ipaq 3130 (16 greyscales, 16 MByte ram, 16MByte flash) ;)
12:23.22FR^2Java - don't know. Certainly no sun-jdk or such, but maybe there are ports of the OpenJDK
12:23.33danger_lol well this rx1950 has been sat in it's box for about 2 years and I've not touched it, so thinking of making into a network scanner :D
12:23.44FR^2python and perl shouldn't be that big a problem, but still I have to say that I don't know for sure.
12:24.14danger_Thanks, might just give it a go, need to pop out and grab an SD reader for my desktop tho :(
12:24.57FR^2Not that expensive ;)
12:25.57danger_true about £20 in my local PC shop, will be awesome if I can get Linux and wireshark running on it
12:26.19FR^220 GBP?!?
12:26.26danger_Yep!
12:26.29FR^2What kind of SD-Cardreader is that? Has it gold lettering?
12:26.53danger_ha ha ha, well the only place near me is Maplin which is the biggest rip off store for PC parts known to man
12:27.00FR^2hmm.
12:27.02FR^2okay.
12:27.28FR^2I bought one for 7 EUR (SD-Card-, microSD-Card-Reader, USB 2.0)
12:28.22FR^2Hmm. It has been some time since I last had a look at exchange rates.. 20 GBP ~ 21,75 EUR
12:28.36danger_Yeah expensive - this is the one I was looking at http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=99160
12:30.12FR^2Ah, okay.
12:30.21FR^2That's not that expensive for such a device.
12:30.28FR^2I think 20 GBP is okay.
12:32.23danger_Hmmm, I can get one mailed to be for £5 though http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Akasa-AK-ICR-07S-35-Internal-Multi-Card-Reader-Incl-M2-Micro-SD-and-USB-port
12:32.28danger_thus Maplin = rip off
12:33.33FR^2hmm.
12:33.57FR^2okay, I didn't know that those combinations for a 3 1/2 inch slot are _that_ cheap
12:34.36FR^2The one I was talking of is a smal block of about 3cm x 3cm x 0,7cm with a miniUSB plug and two slots (SD and microSD)
12:35.11danger_Yeah there's one of those in my local place for about £7, so could get that I guess.
12:35.38danger_Just really hoping I can get the Wifi chip working under linux
