USB driver to connect Handheld devices to MacOS X

Description

This is an USB driver for MacOS X to connect handheld devices like the Sharp Zaurus, Yopy, iPAQ, Motorola Linux phones, OpenMoko to MacOS X as an IP device via the USB cable. This allows to use telnet, ssh, SMB etc. to access the Zaurus.

Note that this driver is not a complete Sync solution. Please refer to ZMacSync for such a (shareware) product for the Sharp Zaurus.

The versions up to 0.2.8 for MacOS X up to 10.3 have originally been developed by Andreas Junghans: http://www.lucid-cake.net/osx%5fzaurus%5fusb/index%5fen.html

If your device is not supported yet (please check first!), you can edit the Info.plist file as described here: http://www.dsitri.de/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=639

Notes

There is a bug either in the SMB server on the Zaurus or on the client side on the Mac that limits accessing a C3000 (only this model). The background: SMB gives external access to /home/samba - which contains symbolic links to the internal HDD on the C3000. Although this works for reading files, you can\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t write files larger than approx. 2 MByte to the HDD. The reason is that free space is reported for the device which contains /home/samba and not the linked file system. So Finder thinks there is not enough free space.
