I am using the Cacko 1.22 Rom on my 860, and I tried installing gaim onto my zaurus, but I have all the files and ipk's for gaim to work, but when I try to install one, a thing pops up saying
ipkg says something went wrong. Sorry When I installed gaim before, it worked like a charm, but now, once I switched to pdaXrom and went back to Cacko, it doesn't work. I have also checked my memory space in root by typing df in the terminal thingy, and I still have 50% space on root, and spaces in the other parts. Any ideas on how to fix it? |

Run ipkg from the command line to get a useful message the GUI does not provide any kind of useful message. My first question is how are you installing gaim (from the feed, local ipks, etc.)? Thanks |

Please... share your success!! http://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=GAIMHowTo It is unlikely that this version is functional beyond MSN. Does someone have a HowTO for a version of Gaim (qpe-gaim) that supports all the major protocols (Yahoo, AIM, MSN) and is stable? Thanks in advance. |

Both the Gaim on the Cacko feed and the Gaim on the qpe-gaim.sourceforge feed, throw errors telling me they need libpng 1.0.9, and not 1.2.5 (which is the one available on those feeds).
Anyone know where I can get hold of this one? |

Anyone know where I can get hold of this one? I've used the one that's at this location http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/libpng.so.2.1.0.9 Note that you will need to create some symlinks to make this work. Instructions are here.... http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/faq.php#q9 Overall, I've found the stability and perfomance of the "official" (and under-maintained) Gaim that is at qpe-gaim.sourceforce.net to be well below the re-worked version that is a part of OpenZaurus/Opie 3.5.3. This was a big reason for my switch to Opie. Cheers, Randall. |

This was a big reason for my switch to Opie. Thanks! Now Gaim loaded! This is a big step in the right direction, but it dies with a broken-pipe when I send a message (MSN): msn: S: QRY 7 msn: C: XFR 8 SB msn: Appending message to queue. msn: Destroying message msn: S: XFR 8 SB 207.46.0.169:1863 CKI 248820.1121220032.30077 Broken pipe As much as I like what I've seen of OZ, I couldn't get my PHP card to work on it, so it's not an option for me.  Gaim worked fine when I was running Cacko, but Cacko won't run my Wifi card, so I'm stuck with the Sharp ROM..tmk |
