Enabling Microphone
You can plug any 3.5mm microphone into the Zaurus. Since there is only one input connector, you
will need to use a splitter if you want to plug in both a microphone and earphones at the same time,
or use a combined headset with microphone such as the one for mobile phones and use a 2.5mm to
3.5mm adaptor.
There is nothing special you need to do in order to enable the microphone except install some
recording software. There is an application called qpe-voicerec [qpe-voicerec_1.5.0-7_arm.ipk] that
comes on the CD-ROM accompanying the Zaurus. You can use that to record some voice.
Alternatively, you can also use a console application called spxrec [spxrec_0.0.1_arm.ipk] to record
lengthy voice sessions and then use shine [shine_0.01_arm.ipk] to encode to resulting sound file.
Connecting to VGA Monitor via USB
72 of 212
It is possible to connect the Zaurus to a VGA monitor or projector using a
USB VGA dongle. The Kairen VGA adaptor is a USB VGA 2.0 adaptor that
allows you to do slide show presentations using your Zaurus. You will
need to use a USB hub to provide power as well as a USB host cable.
The Kairen USB2VGA dongle is detected as a sisusb vga device:
USB2VGA dongle. It is allocated 8 output buffers with 8MB SDR SDRAM
with a bus width of 32 by the driver.
The package vga-presentation_1.0.1_arm.ipk provides the driver and
application for the USB dongle. I have only tested this specific model, but
any USB dongle with the same SiS chipset (SiS 315E) should work also.
The VGA presentation application allows you to use the dongle for
presentation. The application is limited to doing slideshows only. It slowly
streams the data to the USB device which then buffers it and displays it
to the monitor. I could even switch applications on the Zaurus while the
presentation application continued to send data to the USB device and it
