Purchased the Winconnectz and tkcjabber bundle back in February and just re-installed after a few months of playing with the Palm toys and I find that tkcjabber appears to only support the jabber and oscar protocols now? The tabs for the other protocols are greyed out ...
Checked their support page and it looks like they really don\'t want you to contact them for support without throwing some cash their way and the tkcjabber has had no updates since my original purchase (less then a year). Anyone no what the story is with theKompany...
Anyone had any success with the Gaim port? Followed the instructions but ipk errors (not dependancy issues).
-
What ROM are you running? GAIM would only install on internal memory for me. It works great.
I bought tkcJabber a while ago too when the only multi-protocol alternative was QT Jim, which wasn\'t anywhere near finished. I think you misunderstand the Jabber support though. tkcJabber has only ever supported Jabber only, but Jabber has agents that let you connect to all the other IM protocols. If the other IM protocols are not working, it is because they are broken on the Jabber server you are using. If you are using theKompany\'s Jabber server then you need to contact theKompany via the tkc mailing list. The Jabber agents have been fixed for the latest MSN and Yahoo protocols, so don\'t let them fob you off saying they haven\'t been updated yet.
They have updated tkcJabber several times in the past year, so maybe you need to contact theKompany about your WinConnectZ and tkcJabber package. I got it separately, but directly from theKompany, and have had several updates in my download basket.
I have switched to GAIM though as it is far superior to tkcJabber, even though it\'s free.
-
tumnus, thanks for the info. Your right, I did misunderstand tkcjabber and hand\'t realised that the oscar/msn protocol support where served by the jabber server. I\'m using Sharp ROM 3.13 and installed to internal memory, I followed the installation order closely as instructed in the gaim intall notes. I\'ll give it try again, sounds like it will be worth it.
-
The Gaim footprint isn\'t exactly small if you need the msn transport
-
Neither is tkcJabber\'s but you can\'t get around the fact that MSN now requires a SSL connection.
So you got it working then?
-
I never got GAIM to work properly on any of the Sharp based ROM\'s. I do have it working, although a little unstable, on OpenZaurus 3.3.5. I agree with tumnus, it is far better than tkcJabber
-
I just installed qpe-gaim on my Z (running tkcROM v1), and the program doesn\'t start at all. I get the \"hourglass\" for about 5-10 seconds, with the \"flare\" around the Gaim icon, but then the hourglass disappears, the flare stays, and no sign of the program starting.
I followed the installation instructions on the Web site to the letter - could it be that the program doesn\'t run reliably (or at all) on Sharp 3.x-based ROMs like tkcROM?
Thanks,
Tim
-
Run \'gaim\' from the terminal and see what it prints out. You might have missed a package as there are a lot.
-
Yes, that was quite a list of packages on the installation instructions page (http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/installing.php), but I did my best to get all of them
I tried running gaim from the terminal, and it looks like I\'m missing the \"libopie.so.1\" library (it tells me it \"cannot load shared object file\"). Can I pick this library up from the ZSI?
Thanks for the pointer!
Tim
-
Hmmm, didn\'t realise it required libopie as I already had that installed. You can get it from here:
http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/sharprom/latest/ (http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/sharprom/latest/)
-
Thanks for the URL - I\'ll install that package when I get home.
I\'m surprised that the gaim installation notes don\'t mention libopie as a required package - that was why I wondered if it is usually installed by default on many Zaurus ROMs. (libopie is also mentioned on the qpe-gaim home page (http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/index.php) at time of writing - do the developers assume all Zaurus users will have this library?)
Anyway, thanks again for your help with this - next on the list is getting the program to work behind my home firewall... :roll:
Tim
-
I haven\'t managed to get gaim working but I think the omitted libopie is the issue.
-
Ever had one of those times when you do something really stupid?
I tried installing libopie, using the network feed option on the package manager. To cut a long story short, I ended up uninstalling libqpe by mistake, and now I can\'t boot into Qtopia.
Is it possible to boot to a basic terminal, and install libqpe from a CF card using the command line package installer, or will I have to reflash the ROM?
Yours rather sheepishly :oops:
Tim
-
You cannot uninstall libqpe completely, but you have probably deleted the link to it. Reboot your Zaurus and press the \'/?\' key when it comes up with the \'Wait 1..2..3..4..5\'. Press \'a\' and login as \'root\'. Then run the following commands:
cd /
tar xvf /root/.home_default.tar home/QtPalmtop/lib
reboot
Hopefully that should fix it.
-
Can any of you see the icons on the buttons with Gaim? I did an install this past weekend and I can chat but I have no pictures on the buttons. I looked at the bug reports on sourceforge and found a reply that gave an extra library to install and some symlinks but that didn\'t seem to work for me.
-

I installed qpe-gaim v.4 on my 760 with cacko rom and I got the same as you, no icons/graphics in the gui. I submitted a bug via the qpe-gaim bug page, but it hasn\'t been looked at. I think there\'s only one developer (chipx86?) working on qpe-gaim, so it might be a bit before the bugs are fixed.
funny, v.2 worked just fine on my 760 before... I still have the files for that version (somewhere on my cf)... maybe I\'ll just go back to that version
-
Strange. Maybe there is a bug in the v0.4 packages. I still have icons, but I upgraded from v0.3.
-
Good news: tumnus, your reinstallation tip worked, so the Z is back as it was before (i.e. working!). Thanks again!
Bad news: I\'ve got the same problem as offroadgeek and others - finally got gaim to run, but there are no GUI features at all (buttons, etc.). I had to install libpng, as starting gaim from the terminal gave me the \"where\'s libpng?\" message; once I installed that, I tried running gaim (again, from the terminal), and got a whole slew of error messages before the program started.
AFAICS, the program is unusable in this state - does anyone have a fix, or will we have to wait for a new package from the qpe-gaim team?
At least I have a functional Z again...
Thanks,
Tim

I just grabbed the older v.2 files from my CF and put them in the ZUG downloads... you can grab a zip of them here (http://www.zaurususergroup.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=UpDownload&file=index&req=getit&lid=144).
This version worked for me on my 760 with the cacko rom... it may at least get you a working version in the mean time.
-
I had to install libpng, as starting gaim from the terminal gave me the \"where\'s libpng?\" message; once I installed that, I tried running gaim (again, from the terminal), and got a whole slew of error messages before the program started.
I keep forgetting about all the little tricks I did to get Opie apps working on the Sharp ROM. Perhaps I should write a Howto.
Anyway, I didn\'t install libpng as there\'s a little cheat you can do. libpng has been compiled into the Sharp version of libqte, so all you have to do to get libpng is run this command as root:
ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
I can\'t think of anything else I did though. What are the other errors you get?
-
I just un-installed libpng, and ran tumnus\' link command as root instead. This fixed my Gaim! Thanks tumnus!
It was wild. The second I created the link, the icons appeared in Gaim (it had been running while I worked in terminal).

Ditto here, worked like a champ! Thanks tumnus.

Worked for me too - thanks tumnus!

You\'re welcome

Slightly OT, but not too far:
Being completely new to IM (I\'m experimenting with it to communicate with two old friends in the town I recently moved away from), I don\'t know what\'s involved with getting IM clients working through a NAT firewall. At home, I have a broadband connection going through an SMC Barricade router, with a wireless access point for our laptop and my Zaurus.
Basically, I have two questions to help me get started with qpe-gaim:
(1) Can IM clients work behind a firewall, without needing to set up any port forwarding?
(2) If the answer is no (as I suspect), please could someone point me to some information on which ports to open?
Many thanks!
Tim
-
hell, I haven\'t even tried it et.. but I *still* thank you.
and, yes, a howto would be lovely. :-)
(ScottYelich)
-
AFAIK there is no problem being behind NAT or a firewall for that matter. They work for me. AIM and others are server based so you log in to the server and messages are passed back and forth by way of the server. The only time that I think that you\'d have problem is if you tried a peer-to-peer model or possibly a brokered service but all the ones that I use are server based.
-
Hey Tumnus, would you also happen to have any magic that would make the sounds work?
-
I use gaim behind a firewall without port forwarding. gaim uses these local ports:
----------------------
port state protocol
----------------------
3028 ESTABLISHED TCP
3029 LISTEN UDP
3030 LISTEN UDP
3031 LISTEN UDP
3032 LISTEN UDP
-
hi, i used tumnus\'s command but it gave me permission denied? how do i force it to make link? sorry really new to linux
-
RE: firewall, Nothing special is needed if it\'s a basic NAT\'d firewall. The only part that won\'t work (and you probably would not want this on the Z anyhow) is file transfer. I\'ve never had to deal with an active firewall, so I can\'t help there.
RE: Guest, you need to be root, at the promt issue the command \'su\'

ah thx, sorry wasnt logged in

The problem with GAIM is spit out very clearly in the output when run from a terminal. It give nasty warnings that make the problem clear.
The author compiled qpe-gaim .4 with the libpng header file from 1.0.9 (very old) and is executing it against a libpng 1.2.5 library. I was going to rebuild a \"good\" version compiled against the correct stuff, but unfortunately the author did not post the source code. That one is wierd. The source is availabel for the previous versions, but not .4.
Things that make you go hmmmm...
-
I\'ve now got Gaim working, and set up my MSN account on it. When I start up the program, it logs me onto MSN, but then if I get a notification of e-mails, and I OK the mesage box, Gaim seems to \"bomb out\". Has anyone else encountered this?
Many thanks,
Tim.
-
I\'m having the same problem as Tehas, I\'m working on it however and I\'ll let you know if I figure it out.

Hi,
I have a few comments/questions.
1) First off tumnus you rock. Just curious, how would someone figure out to do a symbolic link from libqte.so.2.3.2 to libpng12.so.0? I\'d love to understand how one can derive that. My hats off to you ..
2) The gui does start now,,, I need to test out setting up accounts and see where she goes. Spent hours getting to this point.
3) From command line I do still get the error of Q+ embedded data dictionary is not owned by user 0. My root is pointing to /home/root writable across the board.
4) Im using terminal for input. The keys are so small. Using vncserver, it also yields a tiny screen. Is there any consoles (remote or otherwise) that are bigger? Also, if you type incorrectly, some shells (i dont think bash) allow you to do history and hit 23! to enter command 23 and you can modify what you mistyped. Know of anyway with bash to do this?
5) Tumnus, laughs do you have a tech guide on how to configure apps on the zaurus. I\'m very impressed.
Thanks much
Greg
-
I do think that GAIM though does have some problems.. I got to the gui, and cant get a chat or im for either msn or yahoo. I do have the .gaim directory already with root writable. Be interested if anyone is successful in doing chats via either of these protocols. I haven\'t really tested aol, irc, or icq though...
THanks

Erm, actually someone else posted that ages ago on the DevNet forums, although it was for another app. In general though it comes from knowing how static linking works and knowing that libqte was statically linked to libpng.
3) From command line I do still get the error of Q+ embedded data dictionary is not owned by user 0. My root is pointing to /home/root writable across the board.
What ROM are you using? I do not get that error with the latest Sharp ROM where you run most stuff as the \'zaurus\' user and hence have /home/zaurus as the home directory.

Also, if you type incorrectly, some shells (i dont think bash) allow you to do history and hit 23! to enter command 23 and you can modify what you mistyped. Know of anyway with bash to do this?
If you get the latest VNC Server, there\'s an option for doubling the screen size. Not pretty, but it makes things easier to see. And as for history in Bash, you can just press up. There are also lots of howtos on the web for bash.
5) Tumnus, laughs do you have a tech guide on how to configure apps on the zaurus. I\'m very impressed.
Nah, I just spend too much time on the forums
I\'ve got MSN and Jabber working with Gaim. When you start Gaim from the terminal, make sure you get a lines like these for MSN with no error messages straight after:
plugins: probing /usr/lib/gaim/libmsn.so
plugins: probing /usr/lib/gaim/ssl-gnutls.la
plugins: probing /usr/lib/gaim/ssl-gnutls.so

Hi,
Ok Im at rom 1.32 (sharp) latest,, qtopia 1.54, and linux kernel 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix.
From console after plugins,
I get failed to open file /home/zaurus/.gaim/prefs.xml permission denied.
both on this accts and ponce (dont know what ponce is).. In this directory are 3 files, accounts.xml, blist.xml, and prefs.xml. It doesnt appear to look for blist.
If I try to do from su root.then I get Q+/Embedded data dictionary is not owned by user 0.
Hmmm. dont understand that.
From gui, it opens but doesnt really give me much to work with..
I guess I can change the permissions on these files to rwrwrw? But what of ponces? Id think running from root should work, but apparently qtopia doesnt like me doing this...
Any other thoughts?
Thanks
Greg
-
Strange that the permissions would be wrong. root cannot run Qtopia apps because of a feature similar to Xauth in X Windows. Run the following commands as root to make sure the directory is readable.
chown -R zaurus.qpe /home/zaurus/.gaim
chmod -R u+rw /home/zaurus/.gaim
chmod u+x /home/zaurus/.gaim
Then try launching Gaim as normal
Don\'t worry about the pounces file.
-
What is the pounces file? Curious.. the other errors went away, turns out the only real change was that /home/zaurus/.gaim was owned by root not zaurus. Maybe, when I installed it, I did so from root, which I guess is a no no. I think because I had some problems with it, when I did the package install, I su to root maybe?
WHen I get home, I\'ll try it. Kinda weird at work, that even though our external ap, has dns , I can\'t resolve addresses here and at home I can.
Oh well..
We shall see. I have to mess with these apps at home.
So, you were able to get msn working, yahoo doesnt because they changed the way it works recently, and the other chats work?? or dont.
I\'ll write and put my findings later on. Thanks for help
-
msn was able to work!!! but interesting on icon group, top left is chat, the second one on left,kills the session. dont know what it is supposed to be for?
2) when trying to use yahoo, it doesnt work. I get yahoo service 0x01 status 0
yahoo service: 0x12 status 1
key: 143 value 60
key : 144 value : 13
unhandled service 0x12
yahoo_html_to_codes: returning string: \'why\' (my message here)
just doesnt send message or recognize user is online...????
==============================================
also of note:
First time thru gui, msn seemed to be ok until I hit the second icon on top when it crashed. Then started under local (zaurus) id not root and got the following errors:
prefs: error reading prefs: failed to open file /home/zaurus/.gaim/prefs.xml permission denied
same on accounts.xml
same pounces
GLib warning: GErrorset over the top of previous error or uninitialized memory,
this indicates a bug in someones code. you must ensure an error is null before its set. The overwriting error message was . \"Failed to open file /home/zaurus/.gaim/blist.xml permission denied.
For some reason, root took ownership, so i chowned these to zaurus. Now it starts thru command line again.
*** The second part of post is user stupidity (me). I set gaim to run with root privilege so it changed the ownership of gaim directory!!! Dumb.
-
Yahoo is broken with gaim. Yahoo changed the protocol.

Anyone ever try qtjim?
I tried to get gaim working following the info here, and still no icons. I have made a text file of the reply to the -s command, and the error message when running from the console, but i can\'t figure out how to paste it into a message from the Z!
qtjim\'s .ipk needs a .jar file. The creator gives a command to install it, but no go.
Anyone have any ideas?
-
Did anyone get MSN and Yahoo working?
For MSN, I get the same results described by tawalker above:
I\'ve now got Gaim working, and set up my MSN account on it. When I start up the program, it logs me onto MSN, but then if I get a notification of e-mails, and I OK the mesage box, Gaim seems to \"bomb out\". Has anyone else encountered this?
I get a ton of information at the shell when I launch gaim, as it is able to download my buddy list and determine how many new msgs I have, but once I hit OK, it bombs and in the shell outputs \"msn: Destroying message\"
For Yahoo, I enter all account information and it quickly fails regardless of what server setting I use (scs.msg.yahoo.com or scs.yahoo.com).
Anyone?
-
I\'ve uninstalled Gaim, and tried the qtjim, but I can\'t figure out how to install or execute the .jar file.
Here is what was ahppening with Gaim, maybe I can go back and try it again if anyone has any idea what I was missing..
# ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
ln: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: File exists
# gaim
gaim: error while loading shared libraries: libopie.so.1: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
Thanks,
C
-
pointydog - I can actually help!
That first statement creates the symbolic link \"/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0\". either you\'ve already created the symbolic link, or you installed the libpng separately. Either way, I had the same message, took a backup (always do before applying Tumnus\' zany fixes ), then did the following as root:
# rm /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
# ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
#
There will be no error message, as you delete (rm) the file prior to performing the link. If you want to first find out if the file is indeed a link, go to the /usr/lib directory and type:
# ls -ll libpng12.so.0
If the symbolic link is already there the output will show the file as a link:
Feb 23 01:22 libpng12.so.0 -] /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2
At any rate, after deleting it and then recreating it, GAIM should let you fire it up, and will appear to work, but as I stated, I can\'t get it to work correctly for MSN or Yahoo. Can anyone?
-
Thanks!
do you know if I should go (re)install all the packages for Gaim before doing that, or after?
I\'ll let you know how I make out, THanks for the help!
(I have to run now, if my dinner gets cold again, I\'ll be in real trouble!)
C
-
do you know if I should go (re)install all the packages for Gaim before doing that, or after?
Well, I didn\'t have to reinstall any in order to get GAIM running after applying the tumnus fix. I followed the instructions on the GAIM sourceforge site to install the packages and libs, and ended up where if I ran GAIM, the window would pop-up but with no icons whasoever. I then uninstalled the libpng that I had installed from the GAIM site, did the actions that I just described above, then ran GAIM again and it worked. However, *worked* is a relative term :? I\'m still waiting (and hoping) to here of anybody who has MSN and Yahoo working on the Sharp ROM as desired.
-
Well, I have a yahoo account, I\'ll try this later (probably tomorrow) and let you know if that part will work.
I dunno about MSN, I think that requires a few other packages and stuff for their security options, and I don\'t have an account with them to try.
I wonder if I should select all the modules, not just the oscar and yahoo ones?
I\'ll try it the short route first, I can always start over again
-
Hi again n8a.
I\'ve re-installed all, removed the link, then re-added it.
No error message when I added it, but I still get the same error
gaim: error while loading shared libraries: libopie.so.1: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
when I look for the association, it\'s there:
bash-2.05$ pwd
/usr/lib
bash-2.05$ ls -ll libpng12.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root
34 Feb 24 15:27 libpng12.so.0 -] home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2
bash-2.05$
Before I had deleted all, I was at least getting the window without icons, now it won\'t even start...
any ideas?
THanks again!
BTW-do you know why some of the things in the terminal show up in different colors?
-
it looks like... there\'s possibly a problem with your libopie? I have the following libopies installed on my 5500:
libopie (1.5-20020930)
libopie1 (1.0.0-sharprom)
Do you have the same? What ROM?
BTW-do you know why some of the things in the terminal show up in different colors?
The different colors indicate the file types: directories, files, executable files, sym links, etc.
-
I\'ll have to go look, I\'ll let you know later.
(I have to go work for a few hours)
I have Sharp 3.1 ROM
I figured the colors were different file types, but how to know what\'s what?
Thanks again!

Does gaim run with oz 3.3.6-pre1 with opie or does it require qtopia? If its only qtopia app, does oz have equivalent?
Thanks

Check through this post - airwolf indicated that he had it working with OZ 3.3.5; not sure how well. Also, it sounds like lardman - an OZ user - has it working to a degree. So the answer should be yes, but as far as *what* portions of it work, I have only gotten irc to work - I\'ve been trying to get MSN and Yahoo IM working unsuccessfully to date on the latest tkcROM.

Hi again.
I checked over the libraries, and I found libpng12 was not installed, so I installed it (from the Gaim site feed) and now it starts again, but gives me other library errors. I think I amy be close, but...
Any idea where I can find a comprehensive list of libraries?
I\'m on my way to work, I\'ll post the error in case you see something obvious, I\'ll try to have a better look later tonight and see if I can figure out what i\'m missing, exactly.
I also got a file manager program working, that should help me figure out what the heck I\'m looking at!

OK! So, now it is (correctly) complaining that you have installed the wrong version of libpng (it was compiled with an old version). This is where the Tumnus fix comes into play. Now, all you have to do is this:
back it up
uninstall libpng
run at prompt:
# rm /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
# ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
#
then click on the gaim icon and you should see the app load with icons and all.

Excellent.
I\'ll give it a try later this morning, let you know how it goes!
I think part of the problem was that I didn\'t uninstall the libpng before I tried the whole thing, I must have somehow missed that part.
Will let you know!

Let me know if you can get either MSN or Yahoo IM working. Thanks--

Not yet. MSN gets to 75% then complains that it cant auth, which would suggest that SSL is b0rked somewhere. I lack the skill to debug it though.

Hi,
I am still having error msg like the one below after I had installed the libopie and used tumnus\'s fix.
# gaim
gaim: error while loading shared libraries: libglib-2.0.so.0: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
Can anyone help? Any help is greatly appreciated.
TIA.
Choonhow.

Choonhow, did you install all of the packages here: http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/feed/release/ (http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/feed/release/) ? (Minus any protocol packages which you do not want). Specifically libglib-2.0.so.0 is in http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/feed/relea...0_2.2.1_arm.ipk (http://qpe-gaim.sourceforge.net/feed/release/libglib2.0_2.2.1_arm.ipk)

thanx alot.

I\'ve got all of the icons appearing (thanks tumnus), and the all the protocols for gaim, but can anyone tell me if there is support for using im on a tcb/ip network? Does gaim support this?
Thanks to whoever answers this
