Hi, I want to buy my husband an iPAQ h1935 for Christmas but I need to know if he will be able to run Linux on it. I've heard conflicting stories! Any help is greatly appreciated as I know nothing about this stuff

I did some digging on Google for linux iPAQ h1935 and found some links that seem that it will work but it's not going to be as simple as just install and go. There will be be some working and tweeking, if your hubby is a real geek he just might like the challange, if not then this may not be the way to go. If not this link might help out a bit http://www.pocketthings.com/index.php?katID=326
