  1. This probably won't happen, because... on Red Hat 7.0 Beta Is Out · · Score: 1

    You'll never see a version 13 of anything.
    Go on, name a software package that has made it
    to version 13!
    AutoCad is the only one that springs to mind.
    Too many anal-retentive marketing types getting
    involved, IMHO. Tch! Number Envy. How sad.

  2. Re:Same with SuSE on Red Hat 7.0 Beta Is Out · · Score: 1

    SuSE 7.0 (split into professional and personal) will be out in August according to www.suse.de - and I was going to buy 6.4 soon. Don't think I'll bother now. "Release early and release often" is fine, but I think these two leading distros are releasing a bit /too/ frequently.

  3. We already have PsiWin for Linux (almost). on LinuxPDA EPOCH 32? · · Score: 1
    See http://www.gumbley.demon.co.uk/plptools.html

    plptools allows you to mount a Psion's disks on your UNIX version. I'm working on the Series 3 support when time allows.

    (BTW, the person who mentioned the old psion-c project earlier... sorry, wrong architecture: that was for the Psion Series 3.)

  4. Re:Linux on the Psion 5... on Ask Slashdot: Palmtop Computing And Linux · · Score: 1

    My NCP programs are purely experimental - you'd be much better looking at Philip Proudman's work, at Philip Proudman's site, or, if you have a Series 5, Fritz Elfert's work.

    Fritz' code doesn't allow transfers to/from a Series 3, yet. It takes the NCP/RFSV protocols and interfaces them to NFS, so you don't need p2nfs running on the Psion.
