There's a standard one that 3Com ship for anyone with a USB port and a Palm cradle - they don't actually have a USB cradle for Palms, so this is their solution. I don't know what "kind" it is tho. The last time I built a 2.4.x kernel the video borked horribly; there was a flashing cross on the screen, it would respond to keyboard input well enough for me to type "shutdown -r now" and that was it. I guess I could try again :) Stephen
