I have several questions. I am new to Linux on the Compaq; and would like
to get a functioning install. Currently I have the following:

Ipaq 3835
Dual Sleeve
Orinoco Gold PCMCIA Card
IBM Microdrive 340MB

I have attempted to get Familiar Opie working but I can only get the
wvlan_cs module working with my Orinoco card and can't use Wellenreiter or
Kismet network scanning utilities... I am wondering if Intimate is no
longer supported? I would like to use the most up to date Familiar releases
etc... But I would also like to make full use of my Microdrive and have
alot of kick ass apps & utilities available. However, I am new to this and
am having alot of trouble putting together the information to make all this
work.

Should I attempt to use Intimate?

Is there an Image someone could provide me with of an Ipaq 38xx with a
microdrive and a Orinoco compatible PC card?

I've tried to learn what I can; but I'm getting very frustrated to the point
of putting PocketPC 2002 back on. I really don't want to do this, but there
doesn't seem to be a tutorial or how-to explaining how I can go from haveing
my bootloader installed to a fully functional up to date Initimate package
installed with a WLAN scannig utility.

Sorry if this message is just going on and on. But I'm lost and need some
guidance. Anyone willing to help a noob..?

Thanks

Dan
