I'm doing a bit of pda hacking today... can anyone tell me what cpu archetecture a Kyocera 7135 has? is it a dragonball MC68VZ328 like the palm handhelds of the same era?

Hi there,

I have some old sales material here and it says it was a 33 MHz DragonBall™MZ. Hope this helps.

Cheers
Mrtimtam

thanks mrtimtam.
I've since learned that palm os 4 was only ever released for motorola dragon balls
and palm os 5 was only released for ARM

which means i now know that all os4 devices are dragonball, and all os5 are arms.

on a different note, i compiled linux for it, and it rebooted, but it hang at the "Ordering image pages".
i have a few more options to try inside make xconfig, probably next weekend.

You compiled Linux for the 7135?? That should produce some interesting results.
