Thanks again. I have two sets of docs from OpenZaurus (for the 5500) one about using wpa-supplicant and the other about roaming with wpa- supplicant. the files and their directories are completely different between the two documents, and the Angstrom wiki only deals with WEP. I tried to pick and choose whatever seemed to fit my installation. I will study what you have done with the background of the other documents and try to understand what's going on, then write up something for the wiki.
That kind of underscores my frustration with Linux in general, that there is a great deal of variation in where files live, and which configuration files a given application will use. Of course, being open source, one can always find out by reading the source, but that is not always expeditious. A wired ethernet adapter would be very handy. Where did you find one that fit the connector on the Zaurus? Can you use a USB hub as a kind of adapter to match up the connectors? I have been downloading ipk files to m SD card on my laptop and then installing them on the Z. it works, but it's clumsy!
