Angstrom & OpenZaurus / No Sound OZ 3.5.1 SL5600

« on: November 10, 2004, 05:04:39 pm »

Has anyone gotten sound out of this configuration. I couldn’t get the screen clicks or alarms to work. I didn’t try XMMS or mplayer. I went back to the Sharp ROM, because of this. I really liked OZ, but I use it for listening to MP3’s and need the sound. Plus it is nice to be alerted so you don’t miss appointments. What are the modules I should look for? I also tried:

cat sound.wav > /dev/dsp

and still nothing. Any suggestions? TIA

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / USB connect to Windows (redux)

I think that the newer (SL5600) usb drivers for the Zaurus on Windows work differently. This is what causes the incompatibility with the newer version of Qtopia Desktop 1.7. I believe the new drivers sync with out using tcp/ip. I currently have the Sharp Rom installed and the Sharp version of the desktop (win) which sync fine. I see no usb network devices and I am also unable to ping my Zaurus. Perhaps using an older Zaurus network driver would work. OZ syncs nicely with the Qtopia Desktop 1.7 on linux, but I don’t know how to connect it to the network via a windows box. Do you have a dedicated Linux box you could use as a router to your Zaurus? You might also try Qtopia 1.7 (win) and setting your IR as a network device (I have no idea if this will work).
