I reflashed back to the february rom, and my display is back to normal. At least it doesnt look like a hardware problem :-)

I repartitioned my flash to exactly 26 for the new rom, but I dont know if that has anything to do with it. In any case, flashed enough times for tonight, if anyone has any ideas, i can try the new rom again later.

I just re-partitioned it to 30mb, and reflashed it and all is well now I need to re-install all my apps and settings...

Just installed the new ROM on my brand new C860.
After some sweating - hey, I just got the thing - I\'m pleased to say it works like a charm

And what an improvement over the stock ROM it is!
Awesome! Great work!

The only problem sofar is that the Linksys WCF12 CF-Card isn\'t recognized. :?
dmesg only \"reports pxa_pcmcia_init(0)\" thats it.
Will probably have to add it to some config file somewhere...

@#$%@#$%@#$%@#$% @#$%@#$%@#$%@#$%@#$%@#%

if you get the linksys wcf12 to work, anywhere, tell me... please... tell me HOW.

to get linksys wcf12 to work you have to edit /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf

find the wcf12 info way down the list and then comment out the manfid line

\"# manfid 0x028a, 0x673\"

got mine working no prob.

Wellenreiter is still not working though:( I get a device not properly configured error for both WCF12 and Dlink 660w??

not really working.
the light comes on, then goes off..
one time the light stayed on, I got an eth0, but no ip.
now I can\'t get the light to come on when I pull out the card and insert.
I\'m going to reboot... try again.

maybe my card is (just) bad?

So did I understand correctly that if I\'ve repartitioned the ROM with the
slc760-25r96h-sdcf.zip sash once supplied, that is not enough for this
ROM, but the ROM/flash partition should be increased to 26? Or are these
two separate issues?

Is 26 enough also for future needs or should I increase it to 30M
just to be on the safe side?

Otherwise features sound real cool, have to try it when I get home.

Be careful with this crappy kernel of sashz:

A) FastFPE - Blows your precision...it may be suitible for people who do not do scientific calucaltions. Watch out for any calculations for Handcom Sheet.

Nothing wrong with preemptive patch. There are no compatibility problems. Sash is too lazy to \"make modules\" and install them on his ROM.

C) Watch out for his so called \"LCD buffering\". Its what is causing the \"ghosting\" to appear. It would be a shame if your LCD screen gets permanently damaged.

This is the second kernel/ROM by sash and friends that has been placed out in a renegade fashion. He does no testing nor looks at consequences. Use this at your own risk.

Is there a way to turn the / , key back to default behaviour?

Hey Mr. Guest, would you mind to unveil who you are when you attack someone that sharp?

lady bug,
I resized to 30 just in case, and have had no problems reflashing since.

I have had the behavior of my key change on this new rom. At first the slash worked as default. Then i had commas as default. A reboot fixed it.

I have to say im pretty surprised at where this and the other thread are going. Where did all the bad blood come between the TKC and Cacko camps?? Anon posts, name calling, blah blah...

I flashed, 26 works fine.
Nice work.

(A) Is that is the case, then someone can select another kernel.

( Huh?

© buffering may cause permanent damage? It would be interesting to hear why you
think this might be the case.

For me, the overclocking just locks my 700. You know what -- SO WHAT? I think overclocking is dangerous and people do it all the time. Hell, flashing is potentially
dangerous.

You, guest-poster-person, may put out a better ROM -- provided fixes for the cacko ROM.... or may continue to anonymous say and make random claims. The first two are potentially helpful to the zaurus community -- the last does little but litter the boards with FUD.

You know, regardless of the little petty stuff -- CACKO is churning out items. I have not
seen this level of development from any other source.

What the F. are you talking about??? I don\'t think that even thought for a second.

Don\'t use this ROM. There are tones of ROMs for C7x0 available out there - go ahead and use any of them.
