If we ask nicely, can you post an image that the less technically inclined can use? My progear just sits there because xp is soooo slooooowww. From experience,...
... Well. Yes, I suppose I could. Though it would be far more likely if I knew what such a thing was. I have heard of drive images but never seen or used one....
I'm also working on a ProGear image, albeit very slowly. I've got a 128M compact flash and an adapter card that will let you use it instead of the harddrive....
I like 'links'-http://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mikulas/links/-works graphically with the -g option and runs on the framebuffer device built into the kernel...
... This sounds really slick. Does the CF replace the hard drive, or is it connected via USB or otherwise? I had been told that the ProGear BIOS could not boot...
... I'll second that. links2 slams pages like you wouldn't believe from a ProGear. Just to clarify, do you mean that you can use the touchscreen as a pointer...
Thanks for the browser ideas. I've tried Dillo, but I'm so used to modern browsers that the missing features (especially CSS) make it hard to use less feature...

... Dear Mike! I've downloaded your drivers and have build them with Mandrake Linux 10.1 ( kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk ). All driveres are OK, except battery. I'm not...
I cleaned off a small partition of my hard drive and made a fresh clean image of a basic debian system. progear-image.tar.bz2 is posted, for now, at: ...
