Linux on a iPaq 3955?

Thermodynamic · 06-06-2004, 08:23 PM

Hello. I have a Compaq iPaq 3955 PDA.

I've heard that some people are able to install Linux on it.

Is there a Linux-based PDA OS that will work with it? I can't find much of anything off the internet.

Thanks!

i personally never used an ipaq all that much, other than checking out some of the
HP IPAQ's that we have in our product lab at work, but the above link is "dedicated"
to use linux on an ipaq ...

I have Familiar running on exactly that device.
Runs fine except for my foldable keyboard and I cannot get my SD card to work.
