[iPAQ] Linux on 3800

The latest 2.4.17-rmk4-hh2 kernel modules in
ftp://lorien.handhelds.org/pub/linux/feeds/2.4.17 now contain battery
charging support for the 3800. It still needs work, but it is a start.
Please be advised that your iPAQ will NOT charge when it has been
suspended (watch for the flashing yellow or solid yellow light; no
light, no charging).
 
A few other changes:
 
    - Asset retrieval now works (should allow X to start up correctly
without modifications)
    - You can read the light sensor (it's a side effect of getting
battery charging to work)
    - A number of bug fixes and checks.
 
Next on the list
 
   - Intelligent battery monitoring (I have not yet implemented the apm
interface)
   - Audio
   - IR
   - SD slot
