Hi,
Im watching the situation about 8385CF for some time now and I noticed recent
Holger´s progress. Well, I also have similar device and Id like to see it
working. Actually, it´s a WiFi chip in PDA. SyChip WLAN6061EB which is in
fact 88W8305 connected over CF interface. My task, which I assigned to me
myself ;) is to make it working in linux. I started investigating this a few
months ago when I became bored by porting linux to omap based stuff
(palmtt/palmz71) and moved to pxa (palm lifedrive). You can check this thread

I wrote all I know now there. I probably forgot to say I have Palm LifeDrive
and Im cooperating on porting linux to it ... hmm ... the project leader
broke his device and moved to palmt650 some time ago and Im alone there
now :S

You can also see this

and notice also Marvell 8305 ... I dont have that handheld, but I think it´d
help them too ;)

So ... what I wanted to ask is whether I can cooperate with you too - porting
stuff from 8385CF to 8305CF. Id like also to ask where can I buy some of
those 8388 dongles so I wont break your code. Im looking forward for your
reply.

Best regards
Marex
