[TriLUG] Zaurus - OpenZaurus sync failure

I had a lot trouble syncing my Zaurus.  One thing that worked once was changing the Zaurus off of the USB connectivity and syncing via the network.  I found wireless to be the most convienent.  I am not sure if this would help with the open zaurus rom.  Just one more thing to try before going back to the original rom.

What I'm trying to accomplish is sync with opie, opie.handhelds.org. The rom i'm using is openzaurus.org, version 3.2.

Is that what you need?  Most of my stuff is from the openzaurus forums and zaurususergroup.org forums, as well as good ol' google. :)
