Well, after a few weeks with GPE, I decided it was time for better app support, so I've switched back to OPIE. Here's the log:
- Fix /etc/network/interfaces - set up wlan:
# Wireless interfaces auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp address 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 wireless_essid %YOURSSID% wireless_key s:%YOURSTRINGBASEDPASSWORD% wireless_mode managed
- Start up the wireless network
$ /etc/init.d/networking restartSSH - Install openssh-ssh (client), openssh-sshd (server), and openssh-sftp (for use with synching later)

/etc/bashrc and /etc/alias files, then point to them with .bashrc and
.bash_profile files in home folder:
# ~/.bash_profile . ~/.bashrc

# /etc/bashrc
source /etc/alias

Mail
$ ipkg install mutt mailx sendmail ssmtp fetchmail/etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf to enable smtp to send mail using you
existing smtp setup from another machine:
root=<me@myemail.com> mailhub=smtp.1and1.com # Where will the mail seem to come from? rewriteDomain=smtp.myemail.com # The full hostname hostname=me@myemail.com # auth user must be your remote email username AuthUser=me@myemail.com # AuthPass must be your remote email password AuthPass=mypassword
$ ipkg install task-opie-games task-opie-extra-games atomic $ /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/icon-reload.sh
#!/bin/sh # Save as ~/BIN/zaurus-sync.sh cd /home/nickb/zaurus/_RSYNC_Zaurus_SLC3200_OPIE for f in usr etc home; do rsync -qrpogtz root@zaurus:/$f .; done
crontab -e. You might want something like this,
to run a backup once a week at 4am:
# m h dom mon dow command 0 4 * * 6 /home/nickb/BIN/zaurus-sync.sh
/etc/ssh/ssh_config on the desktop.
