Marex and TX

As I promised several times, Marex is going to have my TX for development. I'm sending it tomorrow. Once he get it, we can expect some results very soon ;-) I hope at least in working PCMCIA driver. With some luck, we can hope in WiFi too. So good luck, Marex ;-)

Nice work with the TX development, I really hope that marex is able to get most, if not all TX's features available to Linux.

One main feature I would like the most, would be a KeyLock feature. This will most likely need to be programmed in Opie or GPE. Because walking around with a PDA in my pocket, some of the buttons may get pressed and turn it on... In fact, Opie crashed on my when it was in my pocket in suspend mode, as it came out of suspend and requested the PIN, and keys got mashed and crashed it. All that needs to be done is to place a screen before the PIN screen that asks you to do something special.

One neat auth-plugin should be a signature plugin, where it compares two signatures to unlock the device.

I am just brainstorming, these are just ideas. I am not much of developer, but I wouldn't mind creating some neat apps for Opie.

thanks for all the work you have done on this so far, i was wondering how the progress for the wifi driver has come along since i cant wait till i can finally get rid of palmos on and replace it with something that actually works well.

keep up the good work and keep us updated

Miska have you seen the work of Benno to port Android on Neo 1973? His major problem was with the Armv4 processor of the Neo. Palm TX and Palm T5 have an Armv5 processor. So by using his kernel maybe it would be possible to run Android?

His blog post is in:

Hi, I've been using palm for about a year and linux for a couple of years, last month i found H&D

I'm still happy just to see boot sceen in TX, the first time i saw linux on a Palm it couldn't go any longer, just boot and crash

Have a complete linux system on my pocket is just amazing

Once Wifi starts to work, the first thing i will do is giving PalmOS a good bye

you guys have been doing an incredible work

I'm not an expert in linux, and this week i've been tring to understand how does it all work in Palm, to see if there is something I can help, but so far all i did became a great mess lol.
I hope to do something usefull soon.

great work!
