5x00 General discussions / Trouble running certain programs

« on: February 11, 2004, 04:57:54 pm »

I\'m having problems running certain programs (Petittrack and Sky Explorer). I have a 5500 upgraded to the 5600 rom.

When I tap on the program icon it just sits there. I got Petitrack to run the first time but it stopped after I put some coordinates in the settings. I have to kill it with WhatsuponZ. Sky explorer does the same but it shows not to be running after it fails to starts up. How do I run programs from terminal? Will it show any errors when I do?

Also, I was looking around the file system and found some old files from programs I don\'t have anymore. I opened them as text and they looked like settings for just one program(file was program name). Can\'t remember what directory they were in.  I can delete these right?

thanks

Yeah, I know about su. I was saying there is a space after # in terminal after I run su before I can type anything. Was just wondering if that was root. I ran it again using cf directory and it looked like it worked. Does the cf card icon suppose to go away when I umount it because it didn\'t. It looked like mkfs.msdos worked. The program came up after the command with no errors. Does this command delete everything? I\'ll try it with some data on there and see I guess. Thanks.......
