Sorry for not having been back earlier and many thanks to everybody who contributed to this thread, in particular to dima_tr!
I have a few follow-on questions:
1. dima_tr: what is the battery run-time of a DR800 running vnc, given the frequent refreshes and possibly the network load? Could this be pushed in the case of a slow-changing display by only refreshing if the image sent by the vncserver is different from the one currently displayed - or is this already included in the vnc code?
2. how is the usbnet module used? To create a network between two computers linked by a USB cable or to connect a usb network card? (I know this is somewhat off-topic but I am having difficulty understanding this from the entries on the forum.
3. What is the state of wifi-enabling iRex devices? I have seen several solutions being proposed, but most of the discussion seems fairly speculative:
- using a SD card with wifi
- recovering the USB lines internally in squeezing a modified USB wifi key inside the box
- attaching a usb wifi key externally
--> Is there any method that has actually been successfully implemented?
Thanks again to everybody.
