Title: Applications for OZ 3.5.1 / OPIE
Post by: cyboreal on September 20, 2004, 03:50:05 pm
Where are the feeds for the OPIE 1.1.6 packages?  I tried setting http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/unstable/op...us/gcc3/SL5xxx/ (http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/unstable/openzaurus/gcc3/SL5xxx/) as a package source in the 'Server' setting of the Package Manager but none of the packages show up in it.  When I exit the Package Manager and re-load it, the server list is blank again.  What gives?

On a slightly different note, what web browsers are available for OZ 3.5.1?  I've lost Opera from my original ROM.  Can I get that back somehow?  Are there other recommendations?

Thanks,

Tim

Are you using a 64/0 Image?

I've got a 64/0 setup on my 5500 and nothing was saved until I moved and linked /root to /mnt/card/root

Yes, come to think of it, I am, and that would explain everything.  I downloaded three different setups, but started with the 64-0... so # link -s /root /mnt/card/root should get me in business?

You have your link backwards
ln -s /mnt/card/root /root

Right.  Now /root is a symlink pointing to /mnt/card/root, which contains my .profile and everything else that was in /root.  Still no luck with the package feeds showing up (or saving).

Odd that did it for me,

I shut down opie, ssh'd in and moved my /root to /mnt/card/root
created the symlink from /mnt/card/root to /root
rebooted

and my ipkg and other changes work now.

Okay, the package manager feeds are now working.  Has anyone gotten konqueror (from the 5th toe feed - http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/5thtoe/) (http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/5thtoe/)) to work on OZ 3.5.1?  It says it installs on my SL-5500, but I was expecting an icon to show up in one of the tabs and there isn't one.  I installed it to my SD card, so the binary shows up at /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/bin/konqueror, but trying to launch it from there gives me: "error while loading libpng.so.3: cannot open shared object file".  Any ideas?

What other directories do you symlink to /mnt/card with a 64-0 image to make it so any process that is looking for user data/apps on /root links to the SD card?

cyboreal:

Run (from the terminal) ipkg-link mount /mnt/card

This will create the symbolic links for you.  Konqueror runs fine on my 5500 from the official feed.

Thanks, Konqueror works!.  Do I need to run this every time I install something to /mnt/card?

Also, do I need to manually add a launch icon?

I use ipkg-link every time I install a package to a non root location.

Then I restart opie and the icon shows up.
