Jumbo Xqt Package, installing xqt with just one package Options

[Cresho]

im putting up my notes.

install--needed files or it will not work
----------------------------------------
automounter-c3000_0.4.5_arm.ipk
sudo_0.1_arm.ipk
zlib_1.2.3-1_arm.ipk
qconsole(disable magnifyby holding down with stylus and removing check)

placed all crams images in /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt
then
cd /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt
then
./xqt-install.sh

fn stylus right click.....
menu and hit fullscreen for fullscreen

unmount before backing up or restoring
mount

always su before
su


to stop processess before backup, do this
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop stop
and then you can backup.
to start up processess
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop start
use mount to see the mounted stuff.
reboot when necessery cuz it leaves a bunch of
virtual drives in the file manager or you can try and unmount

if you need to eject the sd card, su then /etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop stop then
umount /mnt/card
to remount if you did not reboot, mount /mnt/card
type mount for status of mounted files.

cd /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt is the location where i have it stored.

cheers mate n thx again.

seems like the mozilla cramfs is a bit buggy. I will fix it soon and then firefox and thunderbird will work also.

for all those who have a C3000/C3100/C1000, the automounter package will be able to mount the cramfs images for you automatically after reboot. it might work for other models too, but untested. any volunteers for c8x0/c7x0?

yes, the existing automounter package.
if it doesnt work, i can make it work with someone testing and providing feedback.

The automounter works for me on a c700 FWIW. My c860 is offf at PriceJapan being fixed by Sharp (I hope).

Hello MEANIE

Ok i will test it on my C860

btw have you read my post,


as you are updating the xqt cramfs
i wonder if you can add a feature for changing the menu fonts of gtk applications
to work with confort i think the best size is 16 or 18 style Bold helvitica

here are some informations may be useful

in the site web below related to the fluxbox documentation
http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq...#gnome-settings

in the FAQ section here is the answer
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: Gtk2/Gnome2 applications look wired under Fluxbox, but they look ok when gnome is started

Answer:Run gnome-settings-daemon when Fluxbox starts, eg. put this into your ~/.xinitrc

#load this to have gtk2 apps look ok
GSDPID=`pidof gnome-settings-daemon`
if [ "x$GSDPID" == "x" ]; then
gnome-settings-daemon &
fi

If you don't have gnome installed you can use gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So my questions are

1- is this answer the right one
2-is gnome-settings-daemon installed in the xqt cramfs
3- is gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher installed in the xqt crmafs
4- and finally if no one is installed is it possible to install one of them

here is the link to gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher
http://www.muhri.net/nav.php3?node=gts

it seems that it exists an debian arm package as in the link below

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/gt...eme-switch.html

waiting you opinion

hmm, my novel is a scifi story and i got my Z initially so i can work on it anywhere i am such as when waiting for food at restaurant so i better get back to doing it

First novel? Anything published?

got a few stories published already on some specialty sites.

So, come ON, man! Don't play coy on us. Spill the beans already on where we can get these stories to read. (G)

SF is one of my main addictions, and I bet that goes for a whole lot of us here!

in the meantime, i am trying to decide what else to add to the xqt-apps cramfs.
maybe some of datajerk's compiled apps if he doesn't mind.

Hi all

Meanie
could you add this useful application (i was using under pdaxrom)which is Tuxcards:
the developper described it as follow:
TuxCards is a hierarchical notebook. That was created out of the desire to let my own chaos of papers, notes, and post-it's vanish. Those items are useful but the chaos I produced was not.
Through a friend I got to know CueCards; this is a really nice program that exists for Windows. Since I am using Linux almost permanently, I got the idea to write a similar tool for myself and let every Linux/Unix user share it.
here is a screenshoot
 screenShotV1_2.gif ( 67.07K ) Number of downloads: 95

here is the link to the home page
http://www.tuxcards.de/
and here is the link to the ipk in pdaxrom
http://www.pdaxrom.org/unstable/tuxcards_1.1_arm.ipk
or
http://www.pdaxrom.org/unstable/tuxcards_1.1_armv5tel.ipk

i tried to install it directly on xqt i didn't succes


thanks

The jumbo xqt-apps and xqt-mozilla cramfs have been updated. see the other thread over in the X/Qt section for details.
I might also do a xqt-games cramfs if I have time but gotta meet two hot women for dinner and show them my Zaurus so I need it in prestine state with everything working...
