-
the possibility of a polished 2.6 based system for the Zaurus ? Fabulous!
-
A good reason to give r198 another try!
Current release is far too unpolished for me, so I fell back to my trusty RC12. It's a good thing to see there are still people spending their precious spare time trying to make this a succes! Thanks a lot
-
great news but... last time i tried r198 abiword was much slower than on pdaxii3. can we expect any improvement regarding this? is r198 really faster than pdaxii3?
-
Whats the status of mplayer on 2.6 based pdaX now? Is the 2.6 pxa vo mode as good as bvdd on 2.4 now?
Also, how does nokia's osb browser run under r198? I know people said it was very unstable under pdaXii13 but r198 has much more recent glib, gtk etc so I'm guessing there's a much better chance of it working properly.

It's always fun!
On my C860 I have to change the line in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx from
defaultserverargs=" -nolisten tcp -screen 480x640@270"to
defaultserverargs=" -nolisten tcpMaybe there could be some code to check the machine:
if [ $HARDWARE = "Husky" ]; then
defaultserverargs=" -nolisten tcp
else
defaultserverargs=" -nolisten tcp -screen 480x640@270"
fior something like that.

Attention:
The word "SP1" might be registered or otherwise blocked by MS.

Great news, Meanie.
Maybe I'll try R198 as well some day! Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the update Meanie.
I tried it on my C1000 and the Matchbox Cards applet was broken for CF slot. It would not eject a CF memory card in the slot. It just said it was empty. Pccardctl recognized the card fine and could eject it just fine. I also tried my Buffalo Wifi card and the MB Cards couldn't see it either. Pcccardctl had no trouble with the Buffalo card either. I tried fixing the problem by reinstalling the old MB cards applet from the feeds you included in SP1 (1.03 I believe) and it seems to have totally killed my CF slot. Pccardctl can't see any card in the slot anymore even after rebooting. I sure hope that this is a software issue or my C1000 is write off.
Which brings up another issue that I found after applying SP1. The new reboot menu item doesn't work. Clicking on it does nothing. I have to exit X and then type reboot at the console prompt.

sigh. the mb-applet-cards fix works for C3x00 models. looks like it broke the c1000. just install the old applet from the r198 feed, or use the fbpanel cards applet instead which will work on the c1000 but not the c3x00.
i will need to write a better detection routine, but ultimately, this problem will be properly fixed by the new kernel. my workaround is a hack for the current kernel bug in detecting the pccard devices properly. it assumes slot 0 is the external cf card for all models which is fine for c1000 but breaks all the c3x00. so my hack was to eject slot 1 instead which is where the external cf is for c3x00. once the kernel is fixed, slot 0 will be the external cf for all models...
i almost forgot, for c1000, you can try changing r198 to r200 in /etc/issue
grog: thanks for that feedback. i had such a detection thing in pdaXii13, so i will add that to svn for the new releases as well. i thought this was already fixed but seems like it isnt. are the keymappings ok? i tried to fix a few issues with keymappings but without having such a model i cant test them. this is a sp for r198 so it is aimed at fixing problems with c3x00 and c1000 models specificly, but there are also many fixes that are model independant. if there are things broken on c7x0/c8x0 please report those problems like you did for startx and i will fix them. anything else broken? if the keymap is broke, send me one that works

Thanks Meanie.
The mb cards applet in the feed loads on X startup but when I tap on it, it disappears.
I reloaded SP1 and the your 3x00 fixed cards applet runs so at least I can control my SD and USB devices with it. How do I get back to the original cards applet that works with the 1000? I looked through the feeds but the only fb stuff I can find is the fbpanel. There are no fb applets listed. Maybe I am looking for the wrong name?
Edit: I just changed the release number from R198 to R200 like you suggested and restarted. I'm not sure what that did for me aside from telling me I am now running R200 when I login. Was that supposed to help with the reboot menu item? I just tried the menu reboot and it is still not working.

no, changing the release is supposed to trick the applet into thinking that its a newer version of pdaXrom that doesn't have the kernel bug and thus will use device 0...

Thanks again, Meanie.
I see. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I still can't manage my CF slot with the applet.

made a few more fixes so here is sp2. sp2 includes all fixes that are in sp1 plus some extra ones:
- included missing Reboot
- fixed mb-applet-cards for C1000 also
- some updates to keymappings
-
arg! found a bug in the cards applet. it only detects memory cards, so here is the fix...

They've worked ok for me so far, except for the issues that Meanie's fixed already. Back up first & the n see how it goes. That's waht I've done.

Correct. The only issues for me right now is restoring my custom fstab & .Xdefaults after installing. So unless you've touched any of the config files in the package, you should be ok.

When I tried R189, bluetooth PPP was not working (did not scan for peer) and my socket CF Wifi was also not recognised.
Are these issues fixed or am I missing something in the configuration. I would like to flash back to R198 as the suspend functions are much zippier that pdaxii13 on my 3100 but can't do without networking!

Not quite. The directories need execute permissions as well. Currently:
drwxr--r-- root/root 0 2007-05-24 16:34:42 ./etc/hotplug/
drwxr--r-- root/root 0 2007-05-28 07:26:37 ./etc/rc.d/
drwxr--r-- root/root 0 2007-05-24 16:34:42 ./etc/X11/
drwxr--r-- root/root 0 2007-05-24 20:36:33 ./etc/X11/kb/
drwxr--r-- root/root 0 2007-05-25 14:26:46 ./etc/X11/kb/Akita/As well, 'fraid I have to report a problem with the sp's for corgi's. The xpdf binary isn't compatible, crashing with an 'Illegal instruction' error. It took me a while to notice this 'cause I don't use it that often. I checked out most of the other binary's that are included in the sp & haven't found any issues with any of those.

The xpdf binary isn't compatible, crashing with an 'Illegal instruction' error. It took me a while to notice this 'cause I don't use it that often. I checked out most of the other binary's that are included in the sp & haven't found any issues with any of those.

thanks for letting me know. seems like umask is set too restrictively in the new release.
i will need to recompile xpdf since it was compiled with optimizations for the newer clamshell devices..
the choice now is to have a separete sp pack for 7x0/8x0 , or have an unoptimised (no xscale or iwmmxt) binary for all.

I'm using pdaXii13, but for what its worth it seems to me that one of the advantages of pdaX generally is optimization.

Well, AFAIK the only thing that it currently breaks is the xpdf binary, which I've made Meanie aware of. Just reinstall xpdf after. On the upside, updates to wifi-radar are nice to have (i.e. it actually works now). But I don't use all of the applications that are touched, so your mileage may vary.
Bottom line is, I'd recommend going for it, but don't kill the messenger if something does break . We're still using a beta product, after all

another small update

How is the work on 2.6.21 coming on ?
Still applying patches... waiting to reach a point where I can atleast boot to the kernel...
At the time of 2.6.21.1 most patches for 2.6.20.6 could be applied and kernel did boot but with a few important things braking:
the power button no longer suspended but "apm --suspend" worked and power button resumend,
some nand flash utils broke (but this is also true for 2.6.20.6),
zaurushw thing broke (but this is also true for 2.6.20.6),
wierd behaviour in X with the touchscreen (but this is also true for 2.6.20.6)
Kernel is now at 2.6.21.4 but I've been watching the changelog and found nothing addressing these specific issues (especially the power button one) although there were some other ARM fixes.
I extracted a patch sequence from OZ for the 2.6.20.6 (that with very little work could also be applied to 2.6.21 kernels) along with the actual patches ... gis can build a bootable kernel with some broken things. If anyone likes to try PM me (Adrian .... I already sent you that work).
I'm a feeble programmer ... if anyone has kernel experience and is willing to write patches for the proken things I can try them out ;-)

(sorry for the last quote at the bottom)
Ok, I may give it a try. I've been waiting a long time for the next non-beta stable release... seems like it's just never gonna happen.
With any rom -- I just need a good gcc/g++ and Qt 4.2.3 (or later).
I may hunt down where the rom is and give it a try.
thanks!

one question -- for these SPs.... the ones for 198 are the ones for 700/860, correct?
Also, do I have to apply sp1, then sp2, then 3... or just sp5?

I notice that you implemented that by specifying the allowable programs. I just use NOPASSWD:ALL. Other than security (not a big issue on the Z, especially since most of us run as root anyway), do you see a need to be specific?
Is there plan to have sudo specified in the exec line of the desktop files, so this would be seamless in the gui, or is there some other method you had in mind?

Sure. First of all I have a 760. There are some neat additions to this I recommend upgrading if you already have r197 installed.
However, the debilitating issues are still present:
- shutting off randomly for no reason
- apm issues
- screen not refreshing after exiting X
- audio doesn't shut off when headphones are plugged-in
- screen fading doesn't work with Fn+3 and 4 keys
There are more, these are just off the top of my head.
All I ask for is stability (the first issue). I can live with the rest of the issues.

any comment about r197 stability/usability after this patch?[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=163041\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
IMHO these sp's are baby steps towards the next 'official' release (right Meanie?). Now whether that release will be labelled as stable, I can't say.
But to answer the question direclty, no, I still wouldn't consider this release + sp6 is stable, I have a few issues that I haven't reported, mainly 'cause I haven't had the time to really troubleshoot them myself yet. The ext2 partition on my sd card seems to need a frequent fsck'ing (which I've automated on reboot) & my hostap drivers seem to go south once in a while requiring a reboot. It would be nice to have it more dependable so I can store my contacts & calendar on it & have it automatically wake up for alarms & such, but that hasn't been a high enough priority for me (yet) to drive me away . Oh, and the loss of the NAND flash & restore is a loss that also prevents me from depepnding on my Z. It's too hard to get it back to my working state.
Otherwise, I'm quite happy . But for me my Z is a luxury not a requirement.
-
- shutting off randomly for no reason
- apm issues
I haven't experienced these on my 860.
- screen not refreshing after exiting X
Ah, right. I'm used to suspending & resuming right after exiting X. A pain though, I agree.
- audio doesn't shut off when headphones are plugged-in
True. It's a another pain having to run alsamixer all the time. Then again, at least for me, it's not a biggy 'cause I don't use the speaker very often.
- screen fading doesn't work with Fn+3 and 4 keys
It's been so long I had forgotten about that. And the Fn+1 & Fn+2 to shrink & enlarge the terminal fonts was a kewl thing I remember from Cacko too .
-
These SPs are fixes to make live a bit easier until the next major release (which is still being worked on) and hopefully, I will be able to merge all of these fixes into the next release as well.
I am still using pdaXii13 as my stable system, but have sacrificed one of my Zauri for testing and as I find bugs, I create fixes for them in the SPs. Bugs that are in the kernel will not be fixed by me and have to wait until the next release of the kernel. however, i may make a workaround for the bugs if possible like in the cards applet.
well, sudo is implemented in such a way as to not compromise security too much. Of course, NOPASSWD:ALL could be used instead which you are free to do yourself if you so desire, but I am reluctant to do it as the default for a general distro (although this is what I do in pdaXii13)
adding sudo to the exec line in all desktop files would not really be required, but only for the system tools which will probably will be replaced in the future (see pdaXcfg)...
also, note that I do not have a 7x0 or 8x0 so all the fixes are primarily for C3x00/C1000 models because when I find bugs on them, I can fix and test them, but for 7x0/8x0, I cannot so I just package the same bug fixes for r197. The only main difference for the r197 sp package is that the xpdf binary is compiled without specific optimisations and the ipkg.conf file has a different feed entry. although, i try to adjust the xmodmap file for 7x0/8x0, i cannot test whether my fixes actually work.
please report problems/bugs for 7x0/8x0 with as much details as possible (and solutions as well if you have any) and i will try to incorporate them into the SPs. however, there is no guarantee that the fixes will work until you test and verify them...
- shutting off randomly for no reason
this is actually a power saving feature. just change the timeout to be longer.
- apm issues
more details please....
- screen not refreshing after exiting X
not a problem for c3x00/c1000 but this can be fixed
- audio doesn't shut off when headphones are plugged-in
need to see and check, but probably won't be fixed until the next kernel release...
- screen fading doesn't work with Fn+3 and 4 keys
this has been fixed in sp7 (at least it works for C3x00/C1000)
The halt script needs some work to unmount everything cleanly (I had to do a lot of work with it on pdaXii13 which I have not done yet in pdaXrom)
The next release of pdaXrom will have a GUI installer with system backup and restore feature to replace the nand backup/restore feature. I may also implement zbackup on pdaXrom (if time permits) so you can create system snapshots that you can use to flash back your system.
-
sp7 contains some fixes to the keymapping (c3x00/c1000 only) to make the super key working. also fn+1/2 and fn+3/4 also work now to change the screen between vga/svga and also change the brightness. this will effectively disable sticky keys. super+1/2, super+3/4 also works. to enable sticky keys, remove -kb from /usr/X11R6/bin/startx
the fbpanel menu popups now won't go off the screen anymore.
hostap driver is now default (removed orinoco and hermes which were conflicting)
-
- shutting off randomly for no reason

This is not the screen shutting off but rather the whole unit shutting off. Maybe there's another timeout you're referring to, but the problem seems to go deeper than the "Light & Power Settings".
- apm issues
more details please....
Actually, I think this is related to the previous problem. It has been mentioned before that's why I didn't elaborate. Basically, after it shuts off by itself and quite unexpectedly, it takes great effort (and a little prayer) to get it turned back on. When I check the power level it has dropped to 5% when just a few minutes before the power level was good. I've given-up trusting apm and the power level indicator.
Also, I should mention, another problem. It may be related to these other two points, but sometimes (and it seems quite random) when powering up, X freezes-up, only showing a blinking cursor in the top right. I can ssh in and kill X or take out the battery and reboot the unit, but in the course of doing this the data that was in any of the programs that were running becomes corrupted.

This is not the screen shutting off but rather the whole unit shutting off. Maybe there's another timeout you're referring to, but the problem seems to go deeper than the "Light & Power Settings".
Isn't there a Suspend timeout feature in r197/8? (I use beta 3, so I am taking a blind shot in the dark here). In beta 3 it is accessible from the Light and Power app, but I'm not sure if that app is broken in the 2.6 kernels or not (maybe Meanie's new configure app has a Suspend timeout as well?)

I've applied SP7 to 197 on a SL-C750 but the audio isn't working. I'm not hearing _anything_ from the internal speaker or external headphones. Tried both mplayer and xmms. I mainly use my Zaurus for playing music, so it would be nice to have this fixed... Any ideas? =)
The sound works in Cacko and also if I do a sound test in the Fn+D+M panel, so it's not a hardware issue.
(Thanks for all your hard work Meanie!!)

I'm currently trying to build pdaXrom from the repository. I'm curious to know whether or not all your fixes applied to the R197/R198 releases are already checked in to the repository. Or do I still have to apply the SP after installation of the ROM image.
Thanks,

Sorry for the dumb and off-topic question, but every time I try to click on one of the links to download a service pack, it just opens up a new window with garbled text. This happens on my linux box in Firefox and Konqueror, my zaurus under Firefox, and my Powerbook under Firefox and Safari. It's driving me nuts. I tried searching the forums for an answer, but I guess my search query wasn't on target... so... how do I get the dammed thing?
It's probably something simple but it's 4am and I want to see what r197 is all about!

What do your alsamixer settings look like? Correct alsamixer settings appear enabled by default (at least for me), although I could be wrong..[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=163459\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
Well right now the relevant settings (AFAIK) are: Playback [95%], Jack Function [Headset] & Speaker Function [Off], 'cause I just listen to music via headphones. The speaker does work as long as I set Speaker Function [On]. HTH

With these settings applied in alsamixer and XMMS configured to use alsamixer, there is still no sound emitted. Any other suggestions before I give the pdaxii13 project a go?

use zmixer. it's much easier to use and looks much better too (and of course it works too)

zmixer controls won't budge at all; they're 'locked' at the bottom?
Sorry to start again with this topic, but I am having the same issue (SL-C860 r197 SP8). Has this been solved in the meantime??
TIA.

Just install the IPK in this thread (latest is sp8, buried withing the thread IIRC). It works best to install over a fresh install, IMO.
Is anyone going to fix the PDAXrom SITE and put the SPs there?
The blogs on the www.pdaxrom.org mention the Service Packs, but provide no links. I am fresh from Cacko with C1000 and I wasted 5 days fixing keyboard bugs and basically remaking part of the fixes (constantly cursing the webmasters and dead links and bloody ERROR 404). BTW, Where are the sources for r198 now?
Many people advocate Debian, but I definitely refuse to boot from CF or SD cards (need to keep them freely removable and replaceable), so no Debian for me unless it fits in C1000's NAND.

I would like to post my addons to the SP8. The package contains some further tweaks and concentrates on making all preinstalled applications fit the screen size. It also provides default screen calibration and mouse button config files (Fn is the right-click modifier and Ctrl is the middle-click modifier). After installing it you will no longer need the buggy inputconfig script.
It is meant to be installed immediately after the SP8.
List of changes after SP8:
- X is started by default
- updated ipkg.conf with more feeds
- updated rc.xml (openbox config) to automaximize some applications
- updated Xresources for rxvt and xpdf to fill the screen
- default geometry settings for preinstalled applications
- Skins directory for xmms
- /etc/sysconfig/x11* files for right- and middleclick mouse bindings
- stylus pre-calibrated (now you can remove buggy inputconfig)
- fbpanel clock can launch date and time setup
- environment variable for for java (jamvm+classpath)
- quick 5-step brightness control
- mc can handle ipk as archives
- ipkg-build script added
The other package containes the Tango icon theme for X11 file managers.
