Does someone have a version of kdepimpi that works on RC12 with a 3100?
I had version 2.2.3 working on rc12 test but I can't seem to get it going again. More specifically, kopi and pwmanager work fine but kapi gives an error message about not being able to find libmicrokabc_qtopia.so and libmicrokabc_sharpdtm.so
the lib files are present in /mnt/ide3/usr/lib and they are symlinked to /usr/lib and /opt/kdepim
If you have it working I would appreciate information about what steps you took to install it:)
SashZ, could we please get this added to the 3100 feed for RC12 so this is easy? Is there a working version for a 3100 on RC12 in another feed?

I'm using kdepim_2.2.3_armv5tel.ipk which was gotten from an attachment somewhere in this forum. Sorry you'll have to search for it

Where did you get your copy of kdepim from? If different from above then try the above. I don't remember having to do anything special, it just worked.

The copy was from the forums.
md5sum
2ec055c9cffa33c5839a8926dfa2a91d kdepimpi_2.2.3_armv5tel.ipk
I downloaded it and installed it as follows
ipkg -d ide3 install /mnt/ide3/Documents/Install_Files/kdepimpi_2.2.3_armv5tel.ipk
I also tried without the -d ide3
afterwards I get the following error:
KLibLoader::library could not find library: libmicrokabc_qtopia.so
KLibLoader::library could not find library: libmicrokabc_sharpdtm.so
KLibLoader::library could not find library: libmicrokabc_qtopia.so

KLibLoader::library could not find library: libmicrokabc_file.so
KRES::Factory::resource(): Factory creation failed for the library microkabc_file No resource available!!!

there are two problems with this version of kdepimpi I know of (they have all been reported in this forum):
1. kapi expects the libraries to be in a different place than kopi. simple links should solve this problem.
cd /opt/kdepimpi
ln -s /usr/lib/libmicrokabc* .
2. when you start kapi the window manager doesn't automatically show kapi's window. you can, however, activate it with ALT-TAB. I have seen this behaviour with MB, in fvwm it seems to work properly.

I've compiled 2.2.7 for RC12, on my SL-C860. It contains kapi, kopi, kammu - see attachment.

Thanks a million!
I wish we could get the developer to release pdaxrom versions of these so we don't have to keep compiling them at random.

This is very nice and it works. Interestingly, I get almost the exact same error message on startup about the libraries but the program seems to work:) This version starts normally for me without the start minimized bug described above. (no more alt-tab!)
Do you have pwmanager compiled? I juggle a million passwords and I dont feel safe keeping them unencrypted in the address book. Alternatively, could you tell us the stps that you took to compile the other programs so I can take a stab at it?

If the pwmanager angle doesn't work out, try PortaBase which can be found in the feed. I keep my passwords in a PortaBase database. PortaBase is also available for Windows, which is good.

Hehe. Yes, why not?
I would like to give pdaXrom a try.
But I would need a second Z to install pdaXrom and test Kx/Pi.
Does anybody have a spare Z 760/860 to give/sell it to me?

As I need the password manager as well, I cross compiled the most recent version 2.2.7 of pim/pi. This ipkg contains kopi, kapi, kammu, pwmpi, and ompi. Beware that I changed one small thing. In particular I removed the sampling rate option '-r ...' when ko/pi calls 'playwave' in case of an alarm, as this option is not supported on my RC12's playwave.
regards, Philippe
PS: In a separate post I will describe my solution to the alarm problem for ko/pi on my 3100.

cattin,
I just tested your compile of kdepimpi on the new 1.1.0beta1 release and it still works great.
Thanks

Well done cattin. Is the "14% constant CPU usage by KA/PI" issue still there?

unfortunately this version of KA/PI still uses precious CPU resources even when idle.

Hi All,
I still have the prob with kapi complaining about not existing libmicrokabc_sharpdtm.so and libmicrokabc_olaccess.so. The trick with symbolic link in /opt/kdepimpi seems to not work with beta1 (the is no /opt/kdepimpi, it's /opt/kdepim-2.2.7, ok). I created the symbolic links as described above, but kapi still cant find this libs.
Any idea to solve this is very appricated
Thanks a lot in advance
Best regards

Strange.
I really have to figure out why that happens ...

There is nothing wrong if you get these messages on pdaXrom.
Theses libs are not available for pdaXrom.
And libmicrokabc_olaccess will never be available for any platform ... I have to remove that message ...

I don't have an /opt directory and when I try to create one it tells me the filesystem is read-only. I think I missed something when I installed the rom maybe or do I need to remount it rw and create a symlink?
Thanks.

I am using the 2.2.7 version. When I try to move the data storage path using the global settings, ko/pi changes to the new path and stores its data there.
However, ka/pi seems to stick to /home/root/kdepim no matter what I do. It only works normaly when the storage path is set to /home/root/kdepim. If I change it to, say, /mnt/card/kdepim, ka/pi won't save the data when exiting - which makes it load with empty list next time.
What am I missing here?

You could use a symlink to point /home/root/kdepim to the actual directory you want to use. I use that to save wear and tear on the flash.
