Title: software download onto sl-c750
Post by: rcm on December 27, 2003, 02:06:48 pm

Help!
I just got a c750; it runs Qtopia 1.5.4 and
Linux 2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-emb. (sash@sash).
I have tried to load several \"ipk\" packages by doing the
following
  copy ipk onto a SD card on my laptop;
  transfer SD to c750;
  use \"install package\" under add/remove programs

in each case, the new program comes up with
\"Please wait ...\" _upside down_ on the portrait screen,
then hangs.

Any idea what I am doing wrong; I love the machine, but it
is useless unless I can run such 3rd party apps ...

Have you been flashing different roms. If so, you may not have had all the right bits during install.

By the way, this is the wrong forum to post on for help with the C750.
