 From my NX70 w. Linux web page 
(http://plg.uwaterloo.ca/~migod/techie/clieLinux.html):

===================================================

Update: (June 4, 2003) -- If you are using Redhat 9, then upgrade to 
kernel-2.4.20-18.9 and you can pretty much skip this page. I am now 
using the latest evolution 1.3 beta (the anti-aliased fonts look 
beautiful!), together with its pilot conduits, and "it just works", to 
coin a phrase. That is,

     * "normal" syncing,
     * syncing to a Windows-XP VM using vmware (see notes below about 
loading the visor module), and
     * (drum roll) ... even getting at the memory stick via MS-import!

           [start MSImport on the Clie in your kernel, then mount it 
using something like mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/MyCoolClie and you can 
navigate your mounted dir via cd]

now all work without any special tricks, hacked kernels, or goat sacrifices.

I will keep the rest of this page around in case it's useful to anyone 
who is stuck with an older distribution.
