Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Gajim Under Oz/gpe

« on: August 27, 2006, 01:41:58 pm »

I've tryed to run gajim 0.10.1 under OZ 3.5.4. I've installed following packages from feed:
 - python-core
 - python-netclient
 - python-stringold
 - python-pygtk2
 - python-xml
 - python-pysqlite
 - python-crypt
 - python-logging (but that wasn't working, so I've copied /usr/lib/python2.4/logging/*.py from my PC)
 - python-dus (installed with -force-depends, it needs "dbus" package that is not available, but there is "dbus-1" witch (I think) has the same funcionality)
but I'm getting Segmentation fault when I run launch.sh.

I've tryed "python -v gajim.py", output is in attached file. (it's 233 lines long, so I didn't put it in the post)
It's looking like there is something wrong with pyexat, do I need to build it myself?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Lirc + Opie-remote

« on: July 31, 2006, 11:42:23 am »

I've been trying to run opie-remote on my Z 5500 with OZ 3.5.4, but I have a few problems:
1. there is something wrong with lirc_sir module:

Code: [Select]

#modprobe lirc_sir
Using /lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/lirc/lirc_dev.so
Using /lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix/lirc/lirc_sir.so
Segmentation fault
modprobe: failed to load module lirc_sir2. opie-remote isn't starting:

Code: [Select]

#remote
Doing slow search for remote remote
: libopie2 OResource: can't find image remote
100 300
Alarm clock
I've installed this ipks from feed:
opie-remote - 1.2.1-r0
lirc - 0.7.1-r5
lirc-modules - 0.7.1-r2
and use /etc/lircd.conf from http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/philips/RC-5

any ideas how to get it working?

If you have old Sharp ROM you can get to the remote check diag mode from Diag Menu. I think it's something similar to Diag Menu, but it's useing RS/USB cable.

Two things: Are you sure the "On" switch works? I guess it does if you can get to the maint. menu, Never used a 5500.

Both Power button and replace battery switch works.

Try a NAND flash?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=131413\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

There is no NAND backup/restore option in SL-5500, AFAIK it's last model without that.


At the moment I can get to Repair FS console of Sharp's OS when I flash Z with battery switch set to "normal operation". Right after flashing SHARP logo appears and is going up to make place for console showing:

Code: [Select]

INIT: version 2.78 booting
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193

ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determinating whether /dev/mtdblock1 is mounted.
e2fsck Invalid argument while trying to open /dev/mtdblock1

*** An error occured during
*** the file system check.
*** Dropping you to a shell;
*** the system will reboot
*** when you leave the shell.
/etc/passwd: root password garbled
Give root password for maintence (or type Control-D for normal startup):I hit enter and see:

Code: [Select]

(Repair FS) \# #
I've tryed "e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/mtdblock1" but it gives me the same info - "The superblock could not be read (...)"

It still don't respond for pressing power button.
Anyone have an idea what to do with that?

I've got "small" problem with my SL-5500 - it's not booting. It don't even try to boot. Battery and AC are working well, I can start diag menu or flash zaurus (it takes about 3 minutes). It was working, and once after inserting battery it just won't start. I've already tryed flashing with OZ 3.5.4, and Sharp Ospack 2.37, 3.13 and 3.1. Everytime the same - don't boot, screen is off, no light, no sound, nothing. Is there any chance to repair it??

In diag menu when I press "v" I see something like that:

Code: [Select]

CPU      : SA1110 B5
ROM      : USA 3.10
Board    : 01
ROM C.S. : 9f6d
Model    : 0002

BOOTSHP2 : 20020126 785a
CF       : 20020126 fd5d
COLLIE   : 20020221 e44d
ZIMAGE   : 20030509 97ed
ROMDISK  : 20030426 ad7cThis one is for Sharp OS 3.1, but BOOTSHP2, CF and COLLIE checksums aren't changeing after flash, so I think that there can be something wrong with them.
Could anybody send checksums from working SL5500??


-----EDIT-----

PROBLEM SOLVED
I flashed with Sharp's ROM 1.02, and in my diag menu new (4th) page appeared. On that page I get to Flash Tools -> Erase Factory Default. After that I flashed it with OZ - and it works

Padniety - nawet nie prubuje sie wlaczyc, ciemnosc na ekranie. Diagnostic Menu dziala, dioda ladowania dziala, flashowalem OZ 3.5.4, OSpackiem od Sharpa i znowu OZ - nic to nie dalo. Na forum nie znalazlem nikogo kto by uratowal Collie w takim stanie, a wiem ze widzialem gdzies shemat kabla do JTAGa i myslalem ze uda mi sie cos zrobic (tj. zczytac flash z Z, napisac jak to zrobilem i poprosic zeby ktos podeslal dzialajacy )

----edit----
padl po grzebaniu w Diagnostic Menu, odpalalem wszystkie opcje po kolei zeby zobaczyc co tam mozna sprawdzic

---edit---
Narazie udalo mi sie dostac do konsoli "naprawiania systemu plikow", gdy flashuje OSpackiem od Sharpa w pewnym momencie system zaczyna sie uruchamiac (chyba), po czym widze konsole z tekstem:

Code: [Select]

INIT: version 2.78 booting

ext2fs_check_if_mount: Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks...
Could this be a zero-lenght partition?
No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/mtdblock1 is mounted.

Naciskam enter, i widze:

z migajacym znaczkiem zachety. Problem w tym ze nie wiem co dalej z tym zrobic.
