Hello
The first "end user ready" release is being uploaded. It features a nice GUI and should work out of the box (no command line special knowledge should be necessary) Get it on: http://externe.net/zaurus/guylhem-rom/ The only bugs I could find (and honnestly, they are not serious drawbacks) are: - some remaining keyboard remapping (power/record are used like a jogdial, but should also be able to start applications - they can't yet) - the network application refuses to add new interfaces. So I replaced the usual netsetup by a different one I compiled and I created a "Get online" icon, which can be used to create a new connection, before using the network application (that's the only if you really want to use the old one called netsetup.old). I have no idea why it doesn't work :-( Trolltech version works fine, Sharp doesn't. Any help would be welcome If you feel like giving a try, your feedback would be very welcome. What you get : - a polished qtopia 1.5 rom loaded with applications - a cleaned filesystem (no symlinks everywhere) - 24 Mb free to add your own applications (I doubt you'll need them - it's *loaded* with applications, basically every app I use is there, PIM, Hancom, Opera, etc etc.) What's new since last version : - added qtopia 1.5 interface - made sure it worked well - fixed the zoom/systemtime bugs reported in the standalone qtopia packages. What's missing : - special modules used by special card. If you have such a card, please tell me or adf so we can compile your missing module for you To install it, simply restore the nandbackup. That's all. On reboot, you may see jffs2 errors - that's normal. It's just very verbose. You are presented with a login: if you log in, qtopia won't start. Press home twice to open another console. Press userkey/light to move between consoles. You must log out of every shell so Qtopia may start 30 seconds later. However the keyboard may not be usable if you didn't return to the first console. So if you want to use qtopia, simply don't log in. Anyway, let's start the beta test ! I'm also preparing a dedicated feed for the ROM. If you have a .ipk that works fine and you think should be interesting to other people, please send me a URL where I can download it and add it to the feed. If you think some application should be included by default, please tell me too. I'd like to create a "different" rom, very user oriented. Everything should be simple and work out of the box - the apps. I did choose tend to do that. Guylhem |
