Title: Keyring From Feed Doesn't Work In 3.5.2
Post by: hutchman on January 09, 2005, 10:00:52 am
I used to use keyring to manage my passwords in the old Sharp ROM for the SL-5000D.

I recently switched over to OZ 3.5.2 so I could use my Linksys WCF12 and I'm trying to migrate my info to OZ.  I hoped that I could just install keyring and copy the pwd file and all would be well.

I installed keyring from the package manager (vi wifi connection) and when I click on keyring to start it ... nothing happens.  I've flipped the battery switch to force a reboot and keyring still does the same thing the next time I try to start it.

Anyone know what is going on?

Regards,

Brian

You'll have to forgive me.  I'm kind of new to OZ (but I've been doing Debian since 1992 and this stuff looks like apt-get).

I tried the:
ipkg-link mount /mnt/mmcda1 command and it failed.

I did a google search on ipkg-link and found the 3.5.2 release notes (these are not on the OpenZaurus web site I don't think) http://openembedded.org/oe_wiki/index.php/OzReleaseNotes (http://openembedded.org/oe_wiki/index.php/OzReleaseNotes)

It talked about the package manager being unstable at the moment and then talked about using the command line to install packages.

After checking out this document, I tried ipkg-link mount /mnt/card and it added the programs I installed to the SD and then keyring worked.

This probably explains why I was having trouble last night trying to install packages using the package manager gui.

Thanks for the hint!

Brian
