Sharp ROMs / Smb: Unrecognized Character Set

« on: August 28, 2005, 07:53:14 am »

Hello. I'm trying to connect to a server by SMB. When I use 'smbclient' or 'smbmount' I get the message 'unrecodnized character set 866' twice and nothing happened   .

The command sequence I use is:  smbmount  //server/share  /mount/mountfolder  -o  username=myname.
What's wrong here? Thanks a lot for any help.

Sharp ROMs / Some Annoying Things In Cacko 1.22a

« on: February 18, 2005, 02:54:46 am »

The package manager should inform after an installation, which additional package are missing, if they are not installed. Specially if you use the Lite version, sometimes it is hard to find out, which library must be avaliable for instance.    
The current way I found out to check this is to start the application at the console. There you get an information which files are missing.

Try adding that line into /etc/hotplug/usb.handmap or usb.usermap files.

Good news. I move the entry in usb.handmap and it works. Thanks a lot for your help.
So the conclusion of attaching USB sticks is (could be something for the FAQ page):
1. Get your USB product info by PC with usbview (under linux)
2. Enter your this data in usb.handmap in /etc/hotplug
Have a nice day ...

What are the messages in syslog when you connect your USB stick with the updated  config?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66767\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

The message are the same:
... hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 4
... usb.c: USB device 4 (vend/prod 0xea0/0x2168) is not claimed by any active driver
... /etc/hotplug/usb/.agent: Setup for USB product ea0/2168/200

It is a USB product: Trascend JetFlash 2.0 256M. Therefore I added the following line in usb.distmap (I think the position could be whatever):
usb-storage          0x000f 0x0ea0   0x2168   0x0200       0x0200      0x00         0x00            0x00            0x08            0x06           0x50            0x00000000
I had compared the entry with the USB information when I connected the USB memory on a PC. But I believe the entry data doesn't match with USB data what the zaurus got. I checked it also by rebooting the zaurus.

How can I see the detailed USB information at zaurus? Is it possible to activate the changed usb.distmap data without reboot? Thanks ...

Okay, after a long search I found the entry for my USB memory which has to add into "usb.distmap". After adding I got no automatical connection, despite reboot.

I have to enter following commands to get a connection:
1.  modprobe sd_mod  (only once, but again after reboot)
2.  modprove usb-storage  (only once, but again after reboot)
3.  mount -f auto /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb ("/mnt/usb" should be exists)

Then I can work with the USB memory so long the zaurus is ON. After this I have to umount and to mount again. I hope this could help to give me any hint how I can realise a "plug + play" connection. Regards

Tomorrow I will check the hardware with the cacko V1.21 (to see, if there are no defects). Simultaneous I will compare the system messages and loaded modules (of V1.21) with the information of V1.22. Thanks till then ...
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66151\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Now I have done my checks. With cacko V1.21 the CFU USB card and the memory sticks work fine. With V1.22 I haven't got any connections. Then I compared the loaded modules and found out, that "sd_mod" isn't loaded as default. I used "modprobe" to load "sd_mod" and "usb-storage". After it I saw the connection signal of the memory sticks but I have no mount entry.

So I believe something is missing (maybe at "usb.distmap") to load all necessary modules and to create the mount. At my linux PC I have no file named "usb.distmap" (it is SuSE 9.2).  Have anybody an idea, which entries in which file(s) are necessary to use  my USB sticks (like vend/prod 0xea0/0x2168)?

Thanks a lot for any helps ...

Does running "sudo modprobe usb-storage" do anything for you?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66021\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I tried this running and controlled with "lsmod" the modules were loaded. Now I got following messages after inserting the USB stick:
... hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 3
... WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
... USB Mass Storage device found at 3
... /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup for USB product ea0/2168/200

But I got no connection. Then I reflash my zaurus with V1.22 and tried again but without any improvements. Tomorrow I will check the hardware with the cacko V1.21 (to see, if there are no defects). Simultaneous I will compare the system messages and loaded modules (of V1.21) with the information of V1.22. Thanks till then ...

Try to start syslog (/etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog start) and see what messages appear (tail -f /var/log/messages) when you insert your USB stick.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65956\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Thanks for your checks. I have done what you proposed and I got following messages ....
.... by inserting the USB stick:
   hub.c:  USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 4
   usb.c:  USB device 4 (vend/prod 0xea0/0x2168) is not claimed by any active driver
   /etc/hotplug/usb/.agent: Setup for USB product ea0/2168/200

.... by removing the USB stick:
   hub.c: USB disconnect on device 4

I hope, this will help.

Do you mean Ratoc USB Host? It should be working, I will check.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65804\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Yes, it is the CFU1 USB host cf card of Ratoc systems. I tried the new patch V1.22A also but no changes. Could I check anything else for you additionally?

Thanks a lot for the really nice ROM.  I used the previous version and I like the newone.

I 'm using a CFU USB adapter with some USB memory sticks and need some help. With Cacko V1.21 I hadn't any problems to use them. But with V1.22 I couldn't connect to any sticks anymore.  The CFU adapter will be detected but no sticks. I looked at the FAQ page, but I couldn't find some information about the hotplug system.

Can you give me a hint how this should work with CFU and USB sticks or where I can more details to solve my problem?

Thanks, regards

Sharp ROMs / What would you like to see in Cacko 1.22 ROM?

« on: November 17, 2004, 02:31:10 am »

Hello. I'm using a USB Stick with the CFU1 USB adapter of Ratoc systems. Additional I want to use a Iomage JAZ drive with a SCSI/USB adapter. Now I found out, that a USB-SCSI support is missing.  Is it a big deal to add this to the next ROM version? Or can anybody give me some information, how I can add this driver myself?
Thanks a lot for your answer ...

Hi.  Please don't worry, be happy. I changed my PDA from iPAQ 5550 to C860 3 weeks ago, because Windows 2003 isn't too slow and more or less not user-friendly.

Use the Cacko ROM V1.21 plus Hotfix and you have a nice ROM with a lot functionalities.

Sharp ROMs / Ratoc CF USB with Iomega JAZ

« on: October 11, 2004, 04:51:48 am »

I'm using a SL-C860 with installed Cacko ROM V1.21 (plus Hotfix  and a Ratoc CF USB Host card. The connection to general USB sticks works fine  but I can't connect to an external Iomega JAZ drive with a USB-SCSI adapter.

Has somebody experiences with it or is this support not implemented?
Thanks a lot for your help ...
