Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom For C3000 Beta2
« on: January 13, 2006, 04:13:50 am »
Hi Guys,

I am playing around with the rom for a little while and I like it nearly better than my last Opie or GPE install ...

What came to my attention - using the Wireless/LAN config tool works untill I press "OKAY" then the tools seems to reset all cardslots, incl. the Harddrive.

I got the feeling it does something like "CARDCTL STOP" on each of them and then wants to do a "CARDCTL START", which doesn't work as the whole system is on the Harddrive (which has been "stopped"). I might be wrong with the correct phrases up there, but I definately need to reboot the system after storing my network config. It is okay for now, as I simply did it once and then things are fine, but it gets quite annoying when I am on a trip next week and for each and every HotSpot I need to reboot.

Anyone Else seeing this ?

Config:

C3000
pdaXrom C3000 beta2
Netgear MA701 W-Lan (Zomax Airrunner, running PRISM-Hostap CS)

Hints/Help is more than welcome,

Cheer - J*

Yes no fat partition, Z cannot be used as a usb-storage.
Install Winscp on Windows and you can made FTP over SSH (with TCP/IP over USB).
I think every body here prefer to use TCP/IP over USB to take control of his Zaurus (SSH) than mount usb-storage like a USB-Key

Hi Flavien,

this is something that can be overcome be using this [a href=\"http://www.fs-driver.org/]http://www.fs-driver.org/[/url] freeware driver under windows. I can access my internal ext3 partition aswell as my Z with this very fine.

But for the Linux install I would *NOT* recommend other but ext2 or ext3... The symlinking and the naming conventions of good old DOS are not appropriate for a Linux system in my eyes.

Hi guys,

I was downloading it for 1,2 hours - so I thought I put it onto my server (if you are okay THc, PM me if you do not like this!)

File can be downloaded  
HERE

Off now to play around with it :-) Thanks a lot THC!

Hi all,

stupid question - the kernel itself is pretty stable I think, I run this now for 4 days, watching MPG videos, listening to a lot of music, USB stuff etc ... The only thing that doesn't run with this kernel is my WIFI CF Card.

It is a netgear card, and the rom detects a Zomax Airrunner I think ... With the inital kernel from Sharp it works fine. Anyone else having the same issues? I got that feeling the right modules might be missing, which would be a simple solution then.

KRgds,

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Once More Thread About Backup Strategies
« on: October 04, 2005, 09:58:03 am »
Hey Daniel,

nice idea so far .. I wasn't checking into this too deeply as I probably installed 50 times in the last 8 month (playing around too much with OE).

However,  I am flashing using a CF-Card with DOS or an SD-Card with ext2 - both works fine. So, I assume it should work for you also. HDD3 stays not touched anyways when flashing back, right?

Question - which options did you use to backup the sections in the sharp menu (I guess you mean the Japanese one, right?) .. ?

Cheers,
J*

Hi Jondalar.

I also made GPE-ROM for spitz.   

To make the screen a landscape at the time of beginning

It only has to edit /etc/X11/Xserver.

Under "Case`module_id`in"

Code: [Select]
   "SHARP Spitz")

 Â   ARGS="$ARGS -screen 640x480@270";;

When starting, it is sure to become a landscape if it writes.

Because I am Japanese, I use translation software. I'm sorry in strange English.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot asm-nai. I will certainly try this later tonight when I get home from work. Good to see we are not the only ones with C3000 trying OZ/GPE

And ... if this English came from a translator, it is really very good.

Best regards to Japan,
J*

Ok, you've inspired me, and I just can't handle opie any more.

I'm going to try to build a GPE image for my c3000. This will be my first attempt at an OE build.
I think I've got everything downloaded and installed, now I'm trying to set up a local.conf file:
any chance I could have a look at the one you used? It may save me some grief.

Thanks,

Evo.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Gpe Image For Spitz (c3000)
« on: June 28, 2005, 04:21:38 pm »
Hi all,

I managed to compile a (at a first glance) working image for my Spitz. What does not work for me is definately the screen-direction. If I start with just an opened C3000, it is flipped by 90degree and as soon as I change the device into clamshell and log out/log in it is corrected. Untill the next log in.

Wireless with my b-Netgear (GPE says Airunner/ZCom) works fine also. What I recognized is that /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda3 are not mounted at all.

Does anyone have a clue how to localize GPE? I would like to install German language but I can not find any applet. Well. ... needs certain tuning I guess :-) If anyone is interested, I uploaded the images to one of my unused domains:

hd1.tgz at http://www.zaurus-wiki.de/c3000/gpe-image-...50628055725.tgz
pivot-boot at http://www.zaurus-wiki.de/c3000/pivotboot-...50628055725.img

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Set Up An Akita&spitz Build / Need Help On Network
« on: June 26, 2005, 05:01:23 am »
Dear all,

I downloaded the sdk and wanted to play around with the build-rom system. A Problem that I see, is that I can not get an ethernet device to download all the sources etc. I know I could pre-download them and place them in a right environment, but I rather prefer to be online so I can access the documentation/forum/irc while I am inside the pdaX86 environment.

I own an AMD64 with sk98lin gigabit-ethernet card. The module can be loaded manually by typing "modprobe sk98lin", but "ifconfig /all" tells me no eth device is found.

Is there a way to get this done? I run gentoo on my computer usually ... another solution I thought of was installing VMWARE and run the pdaX86 inside there.

Any hint to get the system set up I can use it for internet would be very nice.
Kind Regards,
J*

When the "Alert USB" message appears (if the Zaurus is set to "PC Link") unplug the USB cable, click 'OK', and plug the cable back in.  The Z should then mount as an external drive.  Usually on /dev/sda.

Some distros, particularly Fedora and Ubuntu, will automount it multiple times to multiple mount points if you have it set to SD Card rather than Internal Disk.

Wiredog - you made my day !

Thanks a lot, it works. What I do not get is why the system gets detected under several devices, but atleast I can now access my drive through USB cable - and pump all the movies directly over there instead of using WiFi/WLAN.

Hi All,

Even if I might raise this a second time - I though I wanted to start a separate thread.

I am using a C3000 running Cacko beta rom. My Desktop PC and my VDR server both run Gentoo Linux 2.6.11 while the kernel set there includes usbnet and the Sharp zaurus as modules, as matter of fact I even tried a genkernel generated config where simply everything is included as a module.

Whenever I attach the Zaurus in HDD mass storage mode to the PC, the USB monitor detects the device and also the /hdd3/ partition. But as soon as the USB driver on the PC wants to link the drive to the partition table (using SCSI emulation from kernel) the zaurus comes up with "USB Alert message".

If I try to connect the zaurus for syncing only (via usbnet), the PC detects a usbnet device but breaks the connection with "MLD error".

This happens with kernel that comes with the ROM aswell as tetsu v17, v18a for C3000 - I did not yet try the sharp kernel, which I will probably do later today.

Also, if I do the same under Windows - the effect is also there, at least for the Mass Storage mode.

I wanted to ask 2 things:

a) anyone running cacko for C3000 and is able to sync with Linux? if yes, I would like to see the kernel config of the Desktop linux system if possible
B) How can I activate USB debugging logs - or at least the USB-driver kernel messages - to go into syslog or /var/log/messages ?!

Any help is deeply appreciated - kind regards,
J*

OK, there are new versions of mplayer and bvdd on the atty website ...

http://atty.jp/?Zaurus%2Fmplayer#content_1_2

With bvdd 0.3.1 and mplayer 1.1.2 I can now run bvdd for QVGA movies simply by passing the arguments -vm -fs and these options work from Kino2.

Tested with the iwmmxt version of mplayer on Cacko 1.23 beta1 for SL-C3000.

Andy,

which kino are you running? I got kino2-bvdd- 0.4.2p6-bvdd and I only get a light glitch and then I am back inthe Kino2 main screen.

starting mplayer standalone with -vo bvdd -fs -vm brings me the usual 270 degree rotation

Cheers

Thanks andy,

I was using the bvdd version of mplayer so far but I will check the other asap. Nevertheless I was was looking for Feedback if we should put together a special feed which will deliver out-of-the-box apps instead everyone looking through tonz of threads :-)

I am the best/worst example of a lazy user as you can see ... Simply have not read your last reply to the mentioned thread.
