OK, I got the new SD card and it fails as well! I then tried using the z2script.sh shell found at: http://linux.zipitwireless.com/wiki/Z2Shell. It fails to...
Long-time linux user, new to the Z2 and interested in trying compiling some apps for it. (And glad I found this group!) OE looks like it's too big and has too...
I love the idea of a pocket Linux computer and the ZipIt Z2 seems a good choice but I have some questions if someone has a few moments: - I see on the net that...
Ron, I can confirm that although the linux.zipit.com forum is mostly dead, there's some current activity on IRC. As a Z2 beginner, however, this group looks...
First of all let me start with the Zip's major limitation. It's only has 32 MB of RAM. This makes X and GUI very difficult IMO. 64 MB would have been so much...
After many hours of fiddling around I've gotten recording to work on the Z2. Check out http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/zipitwireless/files/Z2_sound/ For...
This one: http://www.lygotech.com/products/GA1626%20NDS%20HEADPHONE%20&%20MICROPHONE%20IMG_2650.JPG has too many rings on the 3.5mm plug, and I have been told...
I have compiled zipitgfx_sample(http://www.santoni.ca/Albert/zipit/zipitgfx-0.0.1.tar.gz) on my scratchbox and I get the following error when I run it in the ...
Gonna unsubscribe. Haven't done anything useful with my old zipit since the first EuroOSCON. It's been sitting on the charger, so the battery should still be...
From what I understand, the best way to open this device up is to create a linux build on the mini SD card. What toolchain are folks here using to do things...
Seam, I hope you have better luck than I had. I tried for a week to get my Z2 to boot an alternate Linux file system but failed. If you do succeed, please let...
Well, I tried the sample structure 'for testing' in the group files and that was a swing and a miss. I'll have to revisit it and see what wasn't working. Have...
Sean, I got it to build once but would not boot up from SD card. Found a link to a site that had a test configuration but that did not work either! ... -- ...
William, If you are having trouble booting after building an image, it could be that the activate charge time on your SD card is too long. This was the case...
Hi Sean, I have gone the angstrom/openembedded/bitbake cross compilation route with success. As for your goal list: 1. CLI web browsing This is trivially...
Hunter, I tried three different SD Cards, thinking that was the problem. I finally gave up on the Z2. Too bad, it looked like a good fit for one of my...
William, Sounds like the build image or your partitioning is probably the issue then. I can dd an image to file for you to download if you are interested. ...
Hunter, That would be great. I will give it another try. Thanks. ... -- William Estrada MrUmunhum@... Mt-Umunhum-Wireless.net ( http://64.124.13.3 ) ...
Hi, I just got a z2 and looking at info on how to put linux on it as others have done. linux.zipitwireless seems to be down and was wondering if there are...

Hi -(e) I've been following your zipit progress on your blog, and am interested in trying out your new tree. Did you happen to cache your irc session where...
I've been trying to build some images to play around with on my linux box, with mixed success. Base-image builds, but won't won't boot (hangs after Taking...
To get my new ZipIt 2 to let me check email as well as text and instant message? I'm going to be getting one soon as my pay check comes. But I have been...
Please... It would be of great service if somebody could upload just the C runtimes or possibly .libs to use for compiling programs. I am a Window's person...
