I tried flashing the latest tetsu kernel 18i to get the patch for the new sound module.
http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?s=&...st&p=166174 I have Cacko Lite 1.23 installed It said it updated the kernel, and says to reset. I reset using the switch in the battery compartment. I get the same problem that I had last year when I tried flashing tetsu kernel 18b I get these errors repeated many times CODE ERROR: /usr/sharp/etc/launch.conf -- can not open file ERROR: launch.conf -- can not open file INIT: id "ln" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes Then my Zaurus stops responding for 5 minutes, and I get the above errors all over again. It's stuck in a continuous loop. I made a NAND backup just before trying the tetsu kernel, so I can always go back to that. How can I use the latest tetsu kernel? I restored to Cacko and discovered that /usr/sharp/etc/launch.conf is a symlink to /usr/sharp.rom/etc/launch.conf /usr/sharp.rom/ is ro isn't it? Has anyone sucesfully upgraded their kernel in Cacko to tetsu 18i? |

You can download it here:
http://www.katastrophos.net/zaurus/kernels/v55/ The kernel includes all of the latest Tetsu patches + all patches from the Cacko Kernel + some patches from the 2.4.x pdaXrom Kernels. http://katastrophos.net/andre/blog/2007/08...3x00-available/ http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=23984 |

Thank you Meanie for the Tetsu kernel explanation. I always thought since Cacko has the Tetsu kernel, one could upgrade it to later versions.
Now I know that is Not the case. (I always wondered why it didn't work). Thank you eviljazz, I used kernel-fastfpe-cachedfb for my C3100 and install went smoothly. |
