Japanese And Underclocking, Can I have Japanese and Underclocking Options

[ezeerb]

On my C3100, I have not been able to figure out a way to get the battery application in Cacko working on the Sharp Rom or Japanese input running on Cacko 1.23.

I have read comments about how the Sharp Rom is faster than Cacko. If that is true, the Sharp Rom would be my preference. But I want to be able to underclock to extened the battery life when listening to music. Batter Plus (Tetsu) doesn't seem to be able to do that. Also the battery information is very 'about'.

I like Cacko's ability to underclock and give more accurate battery readings. But the closest I can get to getting Japanese is to hand write the Japanese and not use the keyboard. That happens when I use japanese-support-c3100jaen_1.23_arm.ipk.

japanese-support-c3100_1.23_arm.ipk has issues, that combined with my response, turned by Zaurus into a paperweight for a day and a half. Now happily recovered.

Any help would be most appreciated.

If you install the tetsu kernel on the sharp rom then you will get the ability to under/overclock, the standard sharp kernel doesn't offer that.

What "Japanese" do you want that the Japanese support ipk doesn't offer? If you search the forums for "Japanese" you will find an upgrade for the japanese-support-c3100.ipk, or you can try using the c1000 version of the Japanese-support ipk.

The reason for the dodgy Japanese supprt on the C3100 is that I didn't have access to a C3100 and had to extract the files from a C3100 Nand image - I pretty sure on of the input applets got corrupted - hence the reboot cycle.

If you can tar up the /usr/QtPalmtop.rom directory on your Sharp Rom, I can try to "fix" the ipk - if you can't find the fixed version nad are willing to be a guinea-pig

Stu,

I have installed Tetsu's kernel. I have also installed his batteryplus 1.1.5. Tetsu's kernel by it self seemed to do nothing noticable, other than put a circle around the penquin at startup from a reboot. On the batteryplus, a I understand it, it starts at normal mode and goes up from there. When i installed Cacko I got a real over/underclock option. Am I mission something? I would like to get it down the level Cacko allows.

I have tried the japanese-support-c3100.ipk as well as the japanese-support_c3100.ipk (underline and hypen being the only difference. Both go into the boot recycle, just like qtopia-combbattery or close from Meanie's site.

I am happy to be a guinea-pig, but aything but a linux master, I will need some heavy 'hand holding' in the process. The main thing I would like is input capability as well as the fonts etc. for proper display.

Do you know about the speed difference between Cacko and Sharp's roms which some folk alude to?
