Mac Issues / Can't Install Packages On Cacko Rom (sl-c1000)

You guy's are the best.

I believe as you said that it was the downloading and auto un-gzipping of files and I just tried it with Firefox instead of Safari and managed to install cloverpaint.

Fantastic.

Cheers loads.

Mac Issues / Can't Install Packages On Cacko Rom (sl-c1000)

Hi Guy's,

This is my first posting on the OE forums and I am hopeful in anticipation that some kind person here will have an answer to my issue.

I am running MacOS X Tiger on my G5 and transferring ipkg.gz files with a CF card reader onto my Zaurus. However, When I gunzip the files and browse for them in the "files" tab I can see the install files icons and click on them, and the "Package Installer" window pops up but when I click Install packages there are no packages found in the list to install.

I managed to install many applications using this method with the standard Sharp ROM but it was not English enough for me.

I have been downloading applications that are supposed to be compatible with Cacko so can anyone tell me if this is typical? Or what I am doing wrong?


My ROM version is CACkO Zaurus Qtopia ROM 1.23 1029311005

Thanks in advance.

Paul
