General Discussion / New Zaurus Sl-c3200
« on: March 07, 2006, 08:46:38 am »
i think it may not a real next model.
It's too little upgrade on hardware and even software.

i think Sharp wants the CXXXX model become a high-end multi-function dictionary, learning English machine.
Even a newer Z came out, CXXXX series may not fade out quickly. Because Z can still sell as a dictionary/music/video machine.

Now that I have KDE working OK, have a few questions...

A) Would it be possible to setup to have the following options:

   1) Qtopia
   2) pdaXrom
   3) KDE

Or is there a way to boot into pdaXrom now?

 Do not see kwifimanager installed, how do I setup my WiFi card to connect to my network?

C) How do I setup to use my Socket 10/100 ethernet card to connect to my network?

D) What feed do I use to install other apps?

Thanks,

Mark

A)I tried Chero's scripts.tar.gz last day.
I can run KDE without using startx.
But i cannot run matchbox with original startx...
it switched to TWM...
i am still thinking why it cant.

If successed,
It should be
1-Qtopia
2-pdaxrom -> login:root -> /root/startx runs matchbox.
or
2-pdaxrom -> login:root -> /root/startxkde runs KDE.
                                 

B-D) Sorry,I am a KDE begnniner,
I am learning from [a href=\"https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=16851]OE Forums - Kde 3.5[/url]too...
so i cant help you..

I want to say a BIG 'Thank You!' to someonehoi for all his help here and by PM'ing me with advice.
That's what makes OE Forums so great!

To sum it up, someonehoi's instructions work if you follow them carefully AND start with Sharp ROM, not Cacko ROM as I learned the hard way.

Once I did the NAND Flash Restore to get back to original Sharp ROM and then followed instructions install went OK.

It was very exciting to see KDE boot up!

Only thing I don't understand is how to turn off 3100 after exiting KDE.....

Any suggestions?

Onward and upward.....

i have no idea,too.
I have tried chroot and exit  root /hdd4    .
But it doesnt work.
So,I press Z reset button..  
Then it goes back to 123 Boot menu.

Great post, someonehoi!
Thanks
I love it when someone takes the time to document 'step-by-step' what to do....really helps noobs like myself...   

When I first tried dual boot method from other, I got the same mistake.
I write it step by step because I can easily undo and redo the step when i getting error.

Anyway, decided to tryout your method last night.....now could use some advice please!

Already had flashed my C3100 from Sharp ROM to Cacko ROM to pdaXrom and was working OK.
i suggest you to use Sharp rom to test,because the method is based on sharp rom
So figured that to follow your instructions I should go back to a Qtopia based ROM first. So flashed back to Cacko and it was working OK.

From there I followed instructions in this post. All was OK I think until 'Step 5 - Give Root Permission to All pdaXrom Files'....
This step3 and step 5 is important, if it fail, you cannot do the following steps.
You can use TreeExplorer to check hdd4 pdaXrom files whether they are rooted or linked.
If fail,
1.the permissions of all files should be like [   ]/[   ] or root/[   ]
2.no file has a symlink with them.
If success, the permissions of all files should be  root/root.
and files have symlink with them.

I must not have done the D+B reset quite right as when 3100 turned on instead of getting the zaurus login I got the 'Root Filesystem Selector'. Unfortunately, didn't realize at the time that this wrong step to have at that point. So first I tried selecting '1 Qtopia' but no go, so then selected '2 pdaXrom. This started what I realized later was to be done in 'Step 6' creating various files....

D+B+Reset
1.Switch to (Exchange)
2.Take out the battery cover
3.Hold D and B
4.press Reset <-the tricky is D+B must hold before press reset
5.Close battery cover,Switch to (Using)

if the D+B+reset doesnt work,
you can do the steps in the Qtopia terminal.
no matter what method ,the final goal is to make all pdaxrom files root/root.


So after that finished, I rebooted and then retried the D+B reset as by then I realized what had happened. Then went through Steps 5 - 6.

Problem I'm having is when I boot now as per Step 6 (pdaXrom) I get lots of error messages about 'No such file or directory' but then it still boots up to a login prompt. When I tried
'No such file or directory' is the permission problem.
Code: [Select]
#cd /
# /root/startd

I get error message that it can't be found.....
It is the permission problem,too.

So any advice as to what I should do now???
First. finish the hdd partition problem.
Then, use sharp rom + pdaxrom  to test once so that you know the dual boot is suit for 3100.
Then, change cacko  dual boot.



Thanks,

Mark

i modified step 4. Added chmod 777 to all added or changed files.
Because ,sometime,the files cannot be executed after copy from SD card.

UPDATE:

Decided to try starting over and hope that it works this time....

Re-flashed to Cacko ROM as I couldn't boot to it otherwise...
The Qtopia should be boot successfully at anytime.
As i use sharp rom,i can boot Qtopia anytime even i got many errors from pdaxrom.

You cannot boot maybe ...
1.a error step in step3, extracted the files to wrong place
or
2. step 4 copied the dual boot files to wrong place
or
3. step 4 the Qtopia's init permission changed. It cannot execute.
You can flash the rom(but not restore Qtopia) to solve the problem.
flash the rom=OK+Reset,4,SD/CF,Y

Then per the instructions, restored hdd3 per Step 9 of instructions.

Started reinstall of dual boot pdaXrom/KDE, but this time, got only as far as Step 2 before having problems...

After finishing fdisk work to create hdd3 and hdd4 and mkdosfs....rebooted as instructed. Rebooted OK.

Then when trying to do last steps in Step 2, got the following:

Code: [Select]
$su
#mke2fs -j /dev/hda4
mke2fs 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
mke2fs: Device size reported to be zero. Invalid partition specified, or partition  
 Â            table wasn't reread after running fdisk, due to a modified partition table
 Â            being busy and in use. You may need to reboot to reread your partition    
 Â            table.

So rebooted but and tried again but still get same error message

Anyone please have some suggestions???

Thanks!

Step 2 is divide hdd3 into hdd3 and hdd4.
Step 9 is combine hdd3 and hdd4 to hdd3.
No matter step 2 or step 9, the last two  p and w commands are needed.

so, this error, try.

$ su
# umount /hdd3
# umount /hdd4
# fdisk /dev/hda
Command (m for help): p       <- Do the hda1,hda2,hda3,hda4 with the correct size and correct system id?
Command (m for help): w
# mke2fs -j /dev/hda4

General Discussion / Going To Hong Kong...
« on: January 26, 2006, 12:48:26 am »
I could not find any HK local shops selling Zaurus.
But i suggest you to buy some computer/PDA things.
Such as SD, CF, RAM,DVD..
They are surely cheaper, more choices, more styles.

Yes..something are same as US price.
For exampe:
US$1 for one CDR disc in the US shop,
HK$1 for one CDR disc in the HK shop...  

US$100 for a web-cam in the US shop.
HK$100 for a web-cam in the HK shop....

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Rc12+kde3.5 Lite On C3000 Hdd4 With Dual Boot
« on: January 21, 2006, 11:36:39 pm »
Thanks you ZDevil.
ZDevil dont have C3000 but he help me alot.
Thanks you yongyan99.
yongyan99 taught me a dual boot method that starts pdaXrom very easily.

My C3000 is now using
1.Special kernel v18a-C3000
2.Sharp ROM 1.01JP
3.pdaXrom rc12+KDE

This is a dual boot method for the C3000 that installed the pdaXrom Rc12 and the Sharp ROM.(You may try other ROM)
1.It does not affect the Sharp ROM.
2.It does not mess up the original partitions (hdd1 and hdd2)
3.It does not affect Sharp ROM sync with PC. Because Hdd3 is still Fat32.
4.A dual boot menu for you to choose which ROM to boot when each time you reset or reboot the Zaurus.
5.Most of the built-in softwares in KDE works.
I haven't tested them very thoroughly.
Honestly,it has also some problems,such as wifi,suspend,On/off.  
Anyway, KDE is a great and beautiful window manager.
I strongly invite you to have a try and join the pdaxrom family.

Backdrop:
The factory default C3000 HDD has been divided into Hdd1,Hdd2,Hdd3.
Code: [Select]
Hdd1 contains ROM files (ext3)
Hdd2 holds Qtopia files and System files (ext3)
Hdd3 is for storage (Fat32)
I divided Hdd3 into two partitions, hdd3(Fat32) and hdd4(ext3)
So,it becomes like this...
Code: [Select]
Hdd1 contains the ROM files (ext3)
Hdd2 holds the Qtopia files and System files (ext3)
Hdd3 is for storage (Fat32) 3GB
Hdd4 is for pdaXrom (ext3) 478MB


The whole installation process consists of 8 steps summarized as follows:
1.Copy the required files to SD card and install unpack tar and bz2 ipks to Sharp ROM.
2.Hdd partition and reformat hdd3 to hdd3+hdd4
3.Copy and unpack pdaXrom files to hdd4
4.Setting the dual boot files.
5.Give root permission to all pdaXrom files.
6.Load pdaXrom to create some necessary files.
7.Install KDE files into pdaXrom (hdd4)
8.Boot pdaXrom with KDE directly....
~~~~~~~~~
9.If you don't like pdaXrom, you could use the last step to restore original hdd3 partition size..

----------------------------------------------------
Step1.Copy the required files to SD card and install unpack tar and bz2 ipks.
First make a folder call "pdaxrom" in a SD card.
Place these 12 files below onto the SD card.
pdaxrom files location: /mnt/card/pdaxrom/files
1.init
2.pivot_root
3.startd
4.startx
5.kde_lite_symlinks_3.5.0_armv5tel.ipk
6.squashfs_2.2r2_armv5tel.ipk
7.armutils_1_arm.ipk
8.gtar_1.13.25-1_arm.ipk
9.pcre_5.0_armv5tel.ipk
10.qpe-terminal-ja_1.5.0-3_arm.ipk (if needed,it is in the installation CD)
11.root-akita.tar.bz2 <-pdaXrom rc12
12.kde_lite_3.5.0.squashfs
File 1-10 are packed and download the [attached file].
File 11 root-akita.tar.bz2  download https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=15900, first paragraph "here".
File 12 kde_lite_3.5.0.squashfs download http://mail.pdaxrom.org/contrib/misc/

In Sharp ROM
1.Backup your Sharp ROM to SD or CF card.
2.install armutils_1_arm.ipk
3.install gtar_1.13.25-1_arm.ipk
4.install qpe-terminal-ja_1.5.0-3_arm.ipk (if needed)
-----------------------------------------------------
Step2.Hdd partition and reformat hdd3 to hdd3+hdd4
Hdd3 partition divides into hdd3 and hdd4
Remove the CF card.
In the Sharp ROM, run Terminal.
Code: [Select]
$ su
# cd /
# mount -o remount,rw /
# mkdir hdd4
# mount -o remount,ro /
# umount /hdd3
# fdisk /dev/hda

$exit
Now, Qtopia recognized a new CF card. That is hdd4.

Note:
In the Sharp ROM, if you want to edit hdd4.
You are needed to mount hdd4 before editing.
Code: [Select]
$ su
# mount /dev/hda4 /hdd4
# mount -o remount,rw /             <-(optional)
----------------------------------------------
Step3.Copy and unpack pdaXrom files to hdd4
Copy and unpack pdaXrom files.
I copy the pdaXrom files to hdd4 because the mircodrive unpacks files(pdaXrom has more than 3000files) is n times faster than doing so in SD card.
Code: [Select]
$ su
# mount /dev/hda4 /hdd4
# cp -r /mnt/card/pdaxrom /hdd4
# cd /hdd4/pdaxrom
# bzip2 -d root-akita*        <- wait 6mins,it will replace the root-akita.tar.bz2 to root-akita.tar

# cd /hdd4
# gtar -xvpf root/.var*
# gtar -xvpf root/.home*
# gtar -xvpf root/.dev*
# rm -r tmp
# mkdir tmp
--------------------------------------------
Continuing..
Step4.Setting the dual boot files.
Setting Dual Boot files
Code: [Select]
# cd /hdd4/pdaxrom
# mount -o remount,rw /
# rm -f /sbin/init                       <-delete sharp rom's init
# cp init /sbin                           <-copy init to Sharp rom only.
# chmod 777 /sbin/init
# cp /sbin/chroot /hdd4/sbin
# cp pivot_root /sbin <-hdd2
# cp pivot_root /hdd4/sbin
# chmod 777 /hdd4/sbin/pivot_root
# cp startd /hdd4/root               <-anywhere you like in hdd4
# chmod 777 /hdd4/root/startd
# rm -f /hdd4/usr/X11R6/bin/startx
# cp startx /hdd4/usr/X11R6/bin/startx
# chmod 777 /hdd4/usr/X11R6/bin/startx
# reboot
-------------------------------------------
Step5.Give root permission to all pdaXrom files.
Code: [Select]
D+B+reset (runlevel 4)
1.Hold D and B key and Reset at the same time.
2.Hold D and B,put back the battery cover.Press On.
zaurus login: root
# cd /
# mkdir hdd4
# mount /dev/hda4 /hdd4
# chroot /hdd4
# ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/* ./

# exit
# reboot
--------------------------------------------
Step6.Load pdaXrom to create some necessary files.
First load pdaXrom
Code: [Select]
Boot menu enter: 2(pdaXrom)
First loading. It will create some files for future use.
login: root
# cd /
# /root/startd
Stylus calibration screen comes out.
Matchbox launch.
X->Exit->OK
--------------------------------------------.
Step7.Install KDE files into pdaXrom (hdd4)
Code: [Select]
D+B+Reset
login:root
#cd /
# mkdir hdd4
# mount /dev/hda4 /hdd4
# mount -t proc /proc /hdd4/proc
# chroot /hdd4
# cd /pdaxrom

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Porting Pdaxrom To C3000 ... Quite Close But ...
« on: December 22, 2005, 10:18:29 am »
HI,ThC

What is your pdaxrom version that you tried to install in C3000?
Before i tried to install rc8 and 10 into C3000 with SharpRom/Pdaxrom Dual boot in hdd4(that divided from hdd3)
But rc8 and 10 didn't work.
Finally,i installed rc12,pdaxrom could run.
The problem is that each time before i start pdaxrom,
i must mount hdd4 and chroot.
If i dont mount hdd4, the pdaxrom will not start.
If i mount hdd4 and no chroot, the pdaxrom starts as Twm.
If i mount hdd4 and chroot, the pdaxrom starts as Matchbox.

I havent test the pdaxrom function in C3000 yet.

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Sound Quality

Hi,

I recently purchased a new zaurus 3100. Nice device, indeed, but the loudspeaker (and headphones) crackles and splutters sometimes when I play mp3 files. What, in general, is the sound quality of the zaurii?

Best wishes from Austria,
Roland

I am using C3000 with headphone and using build in Musicplayer.

I meet your case before.
A mp3 file looks same as the other mp3 file.
But it plays in crackles and splutters .
After i remaked mp3->wav->mp3,that mp3 can works on Z.


And I found that if the volume level is ,then i obivously hear some background noise .
So i think the best volume level should be within the Yellow region.

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Photos Of The C3k Disassembled

i think its a good idea to start documenting anything we find on the board, there are a lot of test points that could be handy and sockets that are unused for example the u shapped fan of pins under the microdrive or the cluster of 9 square pads.

this infomation could be handy for upgrading the memorey/flash or to add bluetooth. i should really break out the ossciloscope

will post links to parts soon (i have a japanesse site that details the infomation)

i have decomposed the LCD parts.
Beware that the LCD's "flat cables" are very soft and quite hard to replug them.

So which version did you find that works well on the C3000? I'm getting ready to do the same thing.

I'd also be interested.
I did never try it because somewhere I read that the available packages do all not work on the C3000.

I am using this verison opie-keypebble_0.9.2-20030313a_arm.ipk  with wireless on the C3000.It works fine.
This is a tutorial page that teaches you both vnc server and vnc viewer setting.

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Battery Time Difference C1000 - C3000
« on: June 30, 2005, 02:55:41 am »

I want to ask what is difference in time Z lasts to one charging between C1000 with SD 1GB and c3000 without SD? It should be some differece because C3000 feeds hdd and I think that SD card needs less energy than hdd. Does any1 made measuring? I plan buy one of these beasts and battery time is very important parameter for me. Now when you can buy 2GB SD card is difference in space  not so crucial. Than You for info
