Zaurus - pdaXrom / Fixes For R198/r197

« on: July 30, 2007, 11:39:25 am »

Have you tried turning the speaker and/or headphones on using alsamixer?[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=163456\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

What do your alsamixer settings look like?  Correct alsamixer settings appear enabled by default (at least for me), although I could be wrong..[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=163459\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Well right now the relevant settings (AFAIK) are: Playback [95%], Jack Function [Headset] & Speaker Function [Off], 'cause I just listen to music via headphones. The speaker does work as long as I set Speaker Function [On]. HTH
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=163460\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

With these settings applied in alsamixer and XMMS configured to use alsamixer, there is still no sound emitted.  Any other suggestions before I give the pdaxii13 project a go?

use zmixer. it's much easier to use and looks much better too (and of course it works too)

zmixer controls won't budge at all; they're 'locked' at the bottom?

I've applied SP7 to 197 on a SL-C750 but the audio isn't working.  I'm not hearing _anything_ from the internal speaker or external headphones.  Tried both mplayer and xmms.  I mainly use my Zaurus for playing music, so it would be nice to have this fixed...  Any ideas? =)

The sound works in Cacko and also if I do a sound test in the Fn+D+M panel, so it's not a hardware issue.  

(Thanks for all your hard work Meanie!!)

Looks as though beta3 isn't available for the C750.  I know beta2 was, but it seems to be missing from the downloads page??

I'm personally sticking with beta2 for now. I found a few things didn't work for me in 3.

Thanks for the advice & link.  I'm successfully back to beta2, and happy as can be

If I found someone with a NAND backup of beta3 on a C750, would I be able to apply it to my Zaurus?  Is it just as easy to go the japanese route and then beta3?  I'm sorry, I've just had enough of 121.

Go the Jap route... then... you dont even have to boot into the stock rom... just do the normal OK+On... and install beta3...

and no... I would would cross breed roms...

excellent work!  I've noticed a few bugs (using C750):

- no cardctl for switching wifi schemes
- no audio!
- menu button does not work, have to use stylus
- some menu pixels are displayed "off screen"
- everything displayed on screen is "ghosted"

These all present in beta4 as well as r121, but were not present in beta2.  (never got around to trying beta3)

1- Yaeh it is because new Kernel and using udev now
2- Audio is working for me!
3- OK it can be patched
4- Here it is OK!

my Z is a SL-C3100

1. Udev?  Is there a way to get wifi & switching between networks working then, with the current beta?
2. You're lucky!  I miss my audio so much.  Anyone else experiencing this? C750
3,4,5. I can expect this in a future release?

Try go to SHELL and load alsamixer , look for MUTED audio channels and unmute it... do it while playing somethink with mplayer....

Hi,

I already knew about alsamixer, it is the same "problem" as in Beta4. But here I noticed something else: When I was using Beta4 I didn't have to change the settings of mplayer. Here mplayer said "Can't open eSound Output Plugin". I changed it to "ALSA 1.2.10 output plugin" and after unmuting the audio channel it works fine now.

Audio is essential for me, I don't want to carry around an MP3-player while I have my Z with me anyway.  
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=142220\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Thanks so much, my audio is working again.  I must note that I couldn't run alsamixer from rxvt.  I had to run xterm, and all the text is garbled as hell.  I figured it out though..

Still very annoyed not having wifi.  Is there something I'm missing here?  There's no cardctl, no way to use a profile.  If I create a profile and save it, it isn't actually saved or used...

Another thing that drives me crazy, is how there's ghosting and flickering that I never experienced in releases previous to beta 4 and r121.  I went through the COM & LCD configuration, adjusted values.. but it's still ghosted/flickering.

Also noticing that there's extremely high CPU utilization.  If I play music, and try to even open a terminal, the unit is sloooooow and the music will skip a couple times.  Again, didn't experience this in previous releases..

I'm really sorry I upgraded from beta2.
