fast 6000 kernel, along with special libsdl Options

[adf]

we should probably wait for it to exist. It might end up not much more than a rearranged NAND simplified fs w/ 6000 optimizations and a ton o cacko. That would make it 6k cacko, or something like

Adf, Guylhem,
do you think that support to CF BT cards (the socket rev. F forst of all! ) will finally come in your revised kernl?

I would really like to test it with maslowsky BT applets.

Is there any chance that the US storage function, with maybe compatibility with Maslowsky's applet, will fit in the new kernel too?

I am ready to test! :-)

Tahnks a lot for your effort, and happy Easter!

eji, it is far from completion, but when it will ready you'll simply have to plug a CF , reset, and power+ok to reflash

amdonati, the usbstorage has been working for a long time. see externe.net/zaurus/kernel/usb-storage IIRC.

Regarding BT, I will add the modules. Happy easter to you too !

xjqian. Since I spend days and days on the kernel and the various parts, I'd be happy if it could be called guylhem rom (that's my ego showing again, you know :-)

This makes me extremely happy, because I'm close to useless when it comes to Linux tinkering that goes beyond a few console commands.

Looking forward to the Guylhem ROM!

Happy easter and looking forward to the Guylhem room. Btw, I'm interested in the BT modules too. I have a Socket Rev G. Haven't got it to work yet.

there are modules on my ftpsite in the tarball. You will have to figure out which you need. They will be in the bluetooth dir (after you extract the tarball)

After install, my Z ask for login and password I get to a root prompt but when I type qpe it says "error while loading shared libraries: lidqtopia2.so2:cannot open shared object file :No such file or directory. Once it also said/dev/amp_bios: Permission denied could not open for writing '/home/user/Settings/qpe_new.conf' QCopChannel::send: Must construct a QApplication before using QCopChannel .Any suggestions would be helpful

I didn't see any new file on your ftpsite. The only two files are two old zimages created on 3/7. am i not in the right dir?

[guylhem]

coolass, what did you install ?

[coolass]

coolass, what did you install ?

I installed the kernel from adf' ftp site

[adf]

Hmmmm. I'll check again tonight. I thought I had updated.

[adf]

There! it is updated modules tarball, modules ready kernels with critical l stuff (like ext and wireless and usb buit-in)Not Guylhem's latest version, but the modules should be useful, and the kernels to..till we have finished replacements.. again, sorry about the delay.upload to the site is kinda slow, an I guess I have just been assuming stuff went when it hadn't.

I'll start on labelling the modules (from what the menuconfig tells me mostly) this week

Edit: As I said previously, the modules tarball isn't completely (though much has been done) cleaned out yet. The modules should be good for the kernel version with working usb keyboard--all except the keyboard modules, of course. Any one who gets stuff working, especially Bluetooth, please write it down and let us know.,

[adf]

Trolling for interest......

who would be interested in kdrive on the fast kernel? My idea is that one could boot to commandline type startx and chroot into pocketworkstation using a native Xserver and no qtopia overhead.
anyone?

[scheck.r]

A native Xserver, Great !!!

I think many people will be interested in that project.
I guess without Qtopia we will have more RAM available and it will run faster, no ?

I am happy to see as much interest in the 6k, it's such a wondeful machine.

You have my full support.

very weird I got error when trying to install most of my packages from the gui, Error "The filename of this package includes character this application can't handle. Please change the filename and retry install". Never read about this before. Anyway, I'm going to flash back to stock update the kernel.

update: it's my CF card problem. My 6k seems don't like the Kingston Elite Pro card (both 512M and 1G). The above problem(it used to work) and in nand restore: Cant's initiate CF. Maybe the manufacturing tech of Kingston Elit pro, SLM (or whatever it is) is too new for Z? Otherwise it just worked fine. go figure...
