Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Receive errors when installing apps on 3.5.1

« on: October 09, 2004, 12:11:16 pm »

Thanks for the reply lardman.  I tried adding -force-depends in the ipkg command as you said but no luck.

What I am trying to do is install konquer embedded.  Based on the messages I received it looks like this depends on libstdc++... and pcre_4.4... .  I did an ipkg list and based on this it looks like both are already installed by default in oz 3.5.1.  

Did anyone else have a problem installing konqueror or have I just not had enough coffee yet today and am missing something?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Receive errors when installing apps on 3.5.1

« on: October 09, 2004, 09:41:23 am »

Hi,

I installed OZ 3.5.1 today on my 5500.  When I try install apps either from a CF or SD card I get error messages.  I was trying to install libstdc++6 to RAM but I get errors.

At first I received the portmap error.  Looking at irongeek's website (irongeek.com) he says to use "ipkg remove portmap."  I did this successfully, tried to install again using "ipkg install libstdc++6_3.4.2-r0_arm.ipk".  It begins the installation but then says

"Package libstdc++6 wants to install file /usr/lib/libstdc++6.so.6 But that file is already provided by package libstdc++6

An error occurred, return value: 2"

Am I doing something wrong here?  Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / rom flash problem

« on: September 03, 2004, 06:33:25 pm »

Hi - I was attempting to flash my sl-5500 with OZ 3.3.5.  I formatted a 16mb CF card, moved the initrd.bin and zImage to it, and then proceeded to follow the flash instructions on the OZ web site.  Everything seems to work ok, the battery light and the mail light both light up for a few minutes then it goes quiet.  

Per the instructions I then hit the reset button again, closed the battery cover, and turned it on.   This is where it gets bad.  All that happens after I turn it on is that it says "SHARP" in the middle of the screen and there is a cursor flashing in the lower right corner.  

Am I doing something wrong?  I tried it three times and the same thing happened.  Any suggestions that I can do to correct this?

Thanks in advance.
