My IBM Z50 will (hopefully) be on its way shortly. Coupla questions as I =
figure out what accessories to use with it for that great NetBSD =
experience. ;-)
Do the IBM MicroDrives run properly on these? The Z50 certainly has a CF =
slot, but nowhere can I find whether it's type II or not. I'm thinking =
of picking up a 1Gb MicroDrive for this.
How about the Xircom Compact Card Ethernet CF card? Is it supported by =
NetBSD?
And finally - what's the story on the Z50's trackpoint? Doesn't work in =
NetBSD, correct? Why? How much work needs to be done there? Something I =
can help out on?
Dan
