What versions of GCC are being used between the two Netwinders, I wonder?

Excellent question. I hope to have time to find an answer soon.

The build farm uses gcc version 2.95.1 19990816 (release). I believe this is the version the Netwinder site mentioned as well.

I'll see what I can do..right now I'm trying to get OSProcess working with my shrunken image so I can completely do away with the window manager on the iPaq...that way I can call /sbin/shutdown and whatever else (the irda stuff?) right from Squeak. It would be nice be able to do away with X as well, but one step at a time... ;)

I have some code from doing the original Itsy port that might help there, especially combined with the FxBlt/ExternalSurface stuff. Let me know when you get to that point.

That would be great! I had suspected that some direct framebuffer code had to exist somewhere (I wasn't sure if the SqueakNOS folks had gotten that far yet).

I was wondering about the relationship of the iPaq to the Itsy...it is a direct relative is it not? The Linux build I'm using is called 'Bitsy'.
