As Pierre did last tuesday, Linux boots fine on my x51v ! ^^
I used packages made by jeDI few months ago for axim X50v.
(http://lumumba.uhasselt.be/~jedi/x50-linux/x50v-linux/package)

Damn! I forgot to bring an axim from work, so I can't try for myself.
So the only thing we need to get this to work on x51v is a new Haret?
Great!


I used latest release of Haret and tune default.txt like this :
set com "1"
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=12288 keepinitrd init=/linuxrc
console=ttyS0,115200n8"

Except frame buffer, whole things are fine :

Well, as this boots now, I don't think there will be much difference
with booting an x50v (same hardware, remember). So people without a
serial cable can try the same as with the x50v in wm2003:

- use this line in stead of the cmdline above:
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=12288 keepinitrd
init=/linuxrc console=tty0 ip=10.0.0.2:10.0.0.1:::x50v-linux:usb0:"

- Enable mirror mode (Settings/System if I remember correctly) to be
able to see the framebuffer

Or just generally follow the instructions here:
http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/x50vHowTo

It should boot and enable usb networking (if you do the "put out and
back into the cradle" trick), and have the framebuffer enabled. It
should even boot into Opie! It first tries to mount the rootfs over
NFS (long time ago, I'm not sure how that works anymore), and if that
fails it tries to mount it from rootfs.img from the root of the sd
card. Your desktop usbnet connection should be setup with ip address
10.0.0.1. The device gets 10.0.0.2 (setup from the cmdline)


-initrd mini-fs mounted in ramfs is OK !
-my sd-card is properly recognized and automatically mounted !!!!!
-usb device controller is OK so it should be possible use ethernet gadget / file
storage .....

As that all works with the x50v, it should work here also yes.


- regarding UARTs, one thing is amazing :  "ttyS1 is a BTUART" (BT=bluetooth
????)
  Do it mean bluetooth device (which may be TI6150) is connected to ttyS1 ?
  If so, it should not be difficult to make it work on axim as a driver already
exists(done for hx4700).

I think bluetooth should work, apart from some configs I guess. If I
remember correctly, the bluetooth hardware is detected succesfully
with the standard linux kernel drivers.

I'll try this first thing monday morning. I hope someone gets usb
networking working before that :-)


Good luck!

Greetz,
JeDi
