Re: Dell Axim X51 screen size

Hi Jan,

there is also a non vga kernel plus rootfs:

http://law.hostsen.net/oe/axim/aximx50/

its a little bit older, but if i find some time i´ll also build a new
image for this device.

but a 100% working touchscreen would be nicer...

currently the touchscreen isnt really usable..

and i think i am the only one who works for the aximx50... :-(

regards,
 patrick
