Angstrom & OpenZaurus / OZ 3.3.5 + 5600 + Problems

« on: March 12, 2004, 01:26:15 pm »

1.  I had this exact same problem, apparently many people do.  open /etc/init.d/opie with your favorite editor, nano will do.   Below the first two lines (they start with #) add this line (without quotes) \"echo 1 ] /proc/sys/kernel/printk\" .  Now do a reboot, and the problem should be gone.

2.  The date seems to reset when the zaurus is restarted, so don\'t restart it unless you don\'t have to, just suspend it.  ie hold down the cancel button for a second.

Hope that helps.

I am having hotplug issues as well.  First off this is what I have:
Zaurus 5600
Openzaurus 3.3.5

I uninstalled the version of hotplug that was installed, and downloaded the file mentioned above, which is version 2002_08_26-8.

Still though when I try to do anything with hotplug ie /etc/init.d/hotplug status it prints this:

grep: /proc/hal/model: No such file or directory

Am I really supposed to have that file, why don\'t I, and is there a fix?

Thanks

Well after much hassle, reboots, and anger I\'ve gotten to the point where I can ping the zaurus, the zaurus can ping my computer, and the zaurus can even ping websites etc.  What is weird though is that I can\'t visit the website I just pinged or it times out.  I cannot even wget a file or it times out.  This seems very odd to me, and any suggestions would be appreciated.

Oh and by the way, even after the above is sort of working, I still get that weird message when trying to get the status of hotplug.

Thanks
