C1000/3x00 General discussions / Kernel With Source And Config That Works

« on: March 21, 2005, 09:13:48 pm »

Hi,

The default config for C3000 is arch/arm/def-configs/spitz-j in the kernel source tree.

BTW, Tetsu-san uses the config file that you can get from the URL below:

http://tetsu.homelinux.org/zaurus/kernel/v17h/v17h-C3000

Hi,

If you have overclocked your C3000, set  the clock to the default value.
The flickering will disappear for the default clock.

Code: [Select]

$ su

Qt/Qtopia / Stat64 Missing In Dev_img-1.6

« on: February 27, 2005, 10:59:48 pm »

Hi,

OK, following all the links, I end up that /usr/lib/libc.so is identical to /lib/libc.so.6. So what does the code below actally do? Simply append /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a to libc.so.6??  Can this be done??

To honest I have never encountered anything like GROUP (..). What does it do?
[div align=\"right\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

ld (linker) can be controlled by the "linker script" (see [a href=\"http://docsrv.sco.com:8457/cgi-bin/info2html?(ld.info.gz)Scripts]ld.info[/url]).
GROUP() command instruct the ld linker to search specified libraries for unresolved symbols repeatedly until no new undefined references are created.

It's recommended that you should put the script instead of normal symbolic link from /lib/libc.so.6.  

BTW, libc_nonshread.a literally contains non-shared libc functions.
see this Program-Library-HOWTO Document.

I don't have a detailed knowledge of the cacko system.
But I guess you can remount /(root) with r/w enabled by typing below:

Code: [Select]

$ su
# mount -o rw,remount /
# rm /usr/lib/libc.so
# cat > /usr/lib/libc.so << EOF
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a )
EOF
# mount -o ro,remount /HTH,

Qt/Qtopia / Stat64 Missing In Dev_img-1.6

« on: February 27, 2005, 10:13:03 am »

Hi,

I frequently seem to run into trouble when compiling software using the dev-img (1.6), While linking, I get errors related to stat64 not being available, E.g. when compiling cpio I get:
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=68752\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

The compiler_setup.sh script included in the dev_img-1.6 doesn't make essential sybolic links of glibc libraries.

You have to make symlinks as follows:

Code: [Select]

$ su
# ln -s /lib/libcom_err.so.2 /usr/lib/libcom_err.so
# ln -s /lib/libcrypt.so.1 /usr/lib/libcrypt.so
# ln -s /lib/libdl.so.2 /usr/lib/libdl.so
# ln -s /lib/libnsl.so.1 /usr/lib/libnsl.so
# ln -s /lib/libnss_compat.so.2 /usr/lib/libnss_compat.so
# ln -s /lib/libnss_dns.so.2 /usr/lib/libnss_dns.so
# ln -s /lib/libnss_files.so.2 /usr/lib/libnss_files.so
# ln -s /lib/libnss_nis.so.2 /usr/lib/libnss_nis.so
# ln -s /lib/libpthread.so.0 /usr/lib/libpthread.so
# ln -s /lib/libresolv.so.2 /usr/lib/libresolv.so
# ln -s /lib/libss.so.2 /usr/lib/libss.so
# ln -s /lib/libutil.so.1 /usr/lib/libutil.so
# ln -s /lib/libuuid.so.1 /usr/lib/libuuid.so
# rm /usr/lib/libc.so
# cat > /usr/lib/libc.so << EOF
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a )
EOF
# chmod 755 /usr/lib/libc.so

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Sl-c3000 New (jp) Rom Released (v1.11)

« on: February 24, 2005, 07:33:01 pm »

Hi Mark,

According to my 'System Info' screen it says my ROM version is v.1.01 JP.

Are there any advantages to installing this new v.1.1.1 ROM?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=68516\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

The new ROM ver. 1.11 includes a correction of fatal problems on NetFront.
If you often use the browser, it's worth upgrading your Z  

In addition, it also contains some improvement on MusicPlayer.
Now you can play low-bitrate (5Kbps～32Kbps) WMA files, and monaural ones with the player.

Other refinements concern users who use sync with Outlook, and useless qtmail  

HTH,

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Sl-c3000 New (jp) Rom Released (v1.11)

« on: February 24, 2005, 05:27:17 pm »

Hi Bombur,

Does this new ROM use the same 2.4.20 kernel? If I have to recompile some of my drivers I may as well use the overclocking kernel.

Yes.

So the only thing you have to do is to reinstall the overclocking kernel after the installation of the new ROM

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Sl-c3000 New (jp) Rom Released (v1.11)

« on: February 24, 2005, 05:26:58 pm »

Hi,

I don't read Japanese, but from what I can understand with that automated translation, there's a problem with hdd3 filesystem (vfat vs. etx3), so the upgrade might not be perfectly smooth and error free, since the blog's author also wrote a second blog entry with a fix for the aforementioned problem: (http://d.hatena.ne.jp/mm1978/20050224#1109237774)

Ah, it's my Japanese blog...  

I wrote this article for a user who changes hdd3 filesystem to ext3.
This ROM update focedly overwrites the shell script /root/etc/rc.d/rc.rofilesys which mounts all of the hdd partitions.
So if you have modified the script, it fails to boot after the installation of the new ROM.
The process described in the blog is to fix the problem.

Perhaps there are no serious problems for normal C3000.

HTH,

C1000/3x00 General discussions / A Kernel With Everything

« on: February 23, 2005, 09:54:29 pm »

Hi euroclie,

The one thing I immediately noted, though, is that my SD card had disappeared. I couldn't even mount it manually, I got error messages about a non existent /dev/mmcda1 device or something like that... Can you confirm if you also witness this behavior or if I did something wrong?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=68361\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

You have to make a symbolic link of the SD driver module, then generate a list of module dependencies:

Code: [Select]

$ su
# bash
bash-2.05 # ln -s /lib/modules{.rom,}/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/block/sharp_mmcsd_m.o
bash-2.05 # depmod -aAfter that reboot your Z.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Japanese Input On English C3000?

« on: February 13, 2005, 09:32:38 am »

totsubo,

And rebooted, only to notice I had forgotten the * in the filename. So I did it again correctly and rebooted once more. Now I have an inputmethod called libqjpn50pad but it's not what I expected. It brings up a japanese beyboard.  However the keys for switching from hiragana to kanji/katakana or zen-kaku/han-kaku are disabled ...
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66837\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Hmmm... OK, remove the symlinks of the useless keyboard for the meantime.

Code: [Select]

$ su
# rm /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/inputmethods/libqjpn50pad.so*

I was hoping for and input method that let me type a japanese word (using the keyboard) and have it write out the hiragan as it goes and then have it convert it to kanji when I hit the space bar.

This might satisfy you.
 

Code: [Select]

$ su
# ln -s /hdd1/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/plugins/applets/libfepmonapplet.so* /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/appletsThen reboot. You'll be able to switch input letters by pressing "全/半" key.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Japanese Input On English C3000?

« on: February 13, 2005, 08:45:25 am »

totsubo,

Can I only pick one? When my Z was in japanese I think I remember having a 'regular' input method that let me pick between hiragana/katakana/direct Input (full-width/half-width) and also a hand-writting one.

Can I have both? And if I use the japanese handwriting IME will it regonize letters if I write in english?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66834\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Ah, "choice" was an improper word... Yes, you can have both methods by making symbolic links.

How do I back-up the current config so I can revert back to english input if I decide to change my mind?

Simply delete the symbolic links in /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/inputmethods/  

HTH,

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Japanese Input On English C3000?

« on: February 13, 2005, 07:38:53 am »

totsubo,

OK, you can use Japanese input methods by making symbolic links .

First of all, you have to make choice of an input method you want to use.

libCRIM.so.1.0.0 is a hand-writing input method for Japanese letters.
Using this method, you can also input Kanji directly.

libqjpn50pad.so.1.0.0 is a input method for Japanese "alphabet" (hiragana, katakana).

Maybe other input methods (libqjpnktnpad.so.1.0.0, libqjpnnumpad.so.1.0.0, libqjpnsympad.so.1.0.0) are useless for an English speaker. Even we Japanese don't use these input methods

Have you finished making a choice? OK, now make symbolic links.
For example, assume you select "libCRIM.so.1.0.0",

Code: [Select]

$ su
# ln -s /hdd1/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/plugins/inputmethods/libCRIM.so* /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/inputmethods
Then reboot your Z.
The input method will appear on your taskbar...  

HTH,

Hi totsubo,

Is there any way to keep my C3000 in english but be able to input japanese?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=66802\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Executable files of any input methods are placed into /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/inputmethods in QTopia.

Could you show me the output of commands below in terminal?

Code: [Select]

$ ls /opt/QtPalmtop/plugins/inputmethods

Code: [Select]

$ ls /hdd1/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/plugins/inputmethods

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Boot C3000 Into Text Console

« on: February 07, 2005, 11:32:37 am »

Good morning, Mark! (right? Japan is in the dead of night. I'm very drowsy...)

Congratulations! you made it!

Did that and then I saw Tux Penguin and text and then
HOWEVER, I saw the usual 'CG Silicon' screen before it finished booting...

Is that right?
[div align=\"right\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Right. The screen doesn't have to do with the kernel. QTopia shows the screen.

Also, from earlier posts, it sounds like I should see some other applications installed?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65977\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

piro-san made [a href=\"http://www.piro.hopto.org/~piro/zaurus/etc/qclockchange-for-c3000_0.1_arm.ipk]a GUI clock changer[/url] for C3000. Try it.

Note that the application needs root privilege to change the clock.
I think you know how to do that.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Boot C3000 Into Text Console

« on: February 07, 2005, 01:12:56 am »

Mark,

Renamed the 2 files as you noted in your first post....you said to rename file 'zImage', I tried that first but then changed it to 'zImage.bin'.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65918\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Hmm...  

Check the filename of "zImage" on the embeddedkonsole like this code:

Code: [Select]

# cd /mnt/cf
# ls zImage*Then rename it zImage without fail.

Code: [Select]

# mv (the filename acquired above) zImageAfter that, have a try at re-update.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Boot C3000 Into Text Console

« on: February 07, 2005, 12:49:08 am »

Hi Mark,

Now wanted to install m-morino's kernel.....
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65908\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

It's NOT my kernel
tetsu-san and other developers made the kernels from the SHARP's kernel source  

Anyway,

Put 2 files - zImage and updater.sh to the root level of CF  card.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=65908\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

What's the filesystem type of the CF? I normally use vfat and it works for my C3000.

Unplugged AC power cord from C3000.
Removed battery for about 30 seconds.
Replaced battery (replace battery cover, lock cover), and plugged in AC power.
Press and held the "OK" button on the keyboard.
Turned power on.
From Japanese service menu, I selected option 4 (flash/update).
Then from next four options (1. USB, 2. CF, 3. SD, 4. Back)
Choose option 2

So far, so good.

After a while, I saw message "Please reset".

If a file named "zImage" exists on the CF,
it oughts to show like below before the "reset" message.

Code: [Select]

kernel update
zImage:1244096bytes
It's obvious that the updater.sh couldn't find the file "zImage".
So you'll do better to check the filename of "zImage" again.
You may miss the filename extention of the file or something...

HTH,
