Software / Problems installing some Apps

« on: December 17, 2003, 08:01:34 am »

Hi z,
Thanks for the reply. I did try ipkg-link (and tried it again, just in case i had fat fingers), but I got an error (ipkg-link: command not found), which is why i figured I had to replace the \'ipkg\' which was part of the Sharp dist. Funny thing is, it will create proper links when installed through graphic tool.
In /home/QtPalmtop/bin/ I\'ve only got ipkg and ipkg-compare-versions.
thx,
m

Software / Problems installing some Apps

hi,
i\'m new here - great site!!
tho i\'ve used my zaurus for awhile, i\'ve only started playing with command line functions. recently upgraded the ROM on my model SL-5000 to Sharp 1.39, and playing with ipkg in term.
issue: cannot install to SD (SanDisk 256) with proper links (from term).
tried to install the ipkg_0.99.62-1, which i downloaded, but it fails on \'not in gzip format\' and \'ERROR unpacking control.tar\'.
i do copy mp3 files to the sd from a Win desktop, so ext2 is not a great option for me.
any ideas?
should i try a different ROM? (must synch with my address book data in Qtopia desktop)
thx,
m
