Does Cacko Rom V1.23 Support 2gb Sd?

Hello,

I've just bought a 2GB SD and assume that it was working, when I insert into SD slot the system hang/very slow for 1 minute after that it is back to normal.

When I go to the Konsole and type
mount, I get:
/dev/root on / type jffs2 (ro)
/proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/ram1 on /dev type minix (rw)
/dev/loop0 on /usr type squashfs (ro)
/dev/mtdblock3 on /home type jffs2 (rw,noatime)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /usr/mnt.rom/cf type vfat (rw,noatime)

I've tried:
fdisk /dev/mmcda

You will not be able to write the partition table.

Unable to read /dev/mmcda

Does this mean that Cacko Rom v1.23 does not support 2GB SD? or am I doing something wrong.

I should have check before I went out and buy the 2GB which I found a lot of user reported that it is not working.

my Zaurus is SLC-760

I've tried:
mount /dev/mmcda /mnt/card
mount: permission denied. Are you root?

I don't know how to login as root.

Thanks in advance.
Regards Dat.

Connect To Internet Via Z-usb Cable (xp Ics)

Assume:
You have install Zaurus PC Driver.
SL series Ver3 (NDIS 5)

You have a DHCP Server.
(My is the Wireless Router with inbuild DHCP Server (192.168.1.1/24))



On My "Windows XP SP2" I have the following NIC.
1. (NIC-PC) <-- Physical
2. (NIC-Zaurus) <-- Virtual (Only appear when I connect the Zaurus USB Cable).

Step 1 (Perform on PC).
Make sure your Zaurus USB Cable is connected to the PC, so that the Zaurus Virtual NIC appear.

1. Select NIC-PC and then Right Click and Select Properties.
2. Click on the Advanced Tab

3.Then Check the box:
Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection

Under Section Home networking connection:
select your [ZAURUS NIC]

4. Then Click on the OK Button.

Note: Once the above step is perform, you'll see that your Zaurus NIC IP is now Manually set to 192.168.0.1

Network Layout:



Step 2 (Perform on Zaurus).
Modify /etc/hotplug/usbdnet.conf
DHCPS=yes
DHCPC=no

to

DHCPS=no
DHCPC=yes

(This make zaurus to automatically obtain an IP Address from a DHCP Server when the USB Cable is connected to the PC

After the file (usbdnet.conf) is modify, unplug the USB cable from the PC and Re-Connect the USB Cable.

Note:
/etc/resolv.conf (automatically update with the information from the DHCP Server).

eg: on my zaurus /etc/resolv.conf
I have 3 entry as follow:
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (DNS)
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (DNS)
search www.xxx.com

When I do a ping from zaurus to www.yahoo.com.au (it work).


Step 3 Connect to Internet
Open On Zaurus | Network | Opera Browser.

You'll see a dialog box
Aborted
--------------------
Dummy-Device Drop Down List
Connect Button
-----------------

Just ignore the above dialog box (Don't click on the Connect Button).

You need to install Dummy-Device (IPK) on Zaurus
(Just install, don't need to set anything).

If you want to use Netfront Browser to Browse you have to do some extra work:

Open Netfront Browser you see a dialog box

then press Enter.

you can now switch back to the Netfront browser and start Sufing.


Happy Surfing.

Looking For Apps!

Hello,

is there any apps that view .chm (Microsoft HTML Help)?
is there any project planner/management apps for zaurus?

KO/PI is good for (Tasks/Event Management) but no project management!

I am using Cacko Rom v1.23

I saw there is a package name Planner but it is for pdaXrom using GNOME, is there any thing similar?

Thanks in Advance.

Connect To Internet Via Z-usb Cable (xp Bridge)

This make your pc and zaurus USB connect in the same network segment.

Network Layout:


Note: Once the above step is perform, you'll see another connection is created by Windows Named: Bridge

If you select the properties of this connection, you'll see that the NIC-PC and NIC-Zaurus is added in here.

If you issue a command on Windows from the command prompt (CMD.EXE)


You'll see that you now have only 1 NIC with IP Address obtain from DHCP.
Before the NICs is bridge you have 2 NIC with 2 separate IP Address.

Step 2 (Perform on Zaurus).

DHCPS=yes
DHCPC=no

to

DHCPS=no
DHCPC=yes
