Zaurus - pdaXrom / Xfce4 Finetuning
« on: April 29, 2007, 08:45:49 am »
Hi there,

three questions are still open for me:

1.) i would like to change the links in the "xfce menu", especially because
some of my games and office-programs are now stored under "others".
How do i do that?

2.) second: i would like to have the "Menu"-Button on my Z working with
the "xfce-menu", so i havent to use my stylus to start a programm every time. Any clues what i have to change in the xmodmap-file?

3.) the icons of some programs like "rox" and "epdf" arent working. He shows
only the "red x"-icon.
one of the warnings (in xterm there are many of the same type listed):
Code: [Select]
(ROX-Filer:2165): Gtk-Warning **: Error loading icon: Couldn´t recognize the
image file format for file ´/usr/share/icons/Rodent/Scalable/stock/rox-show-details.svg´


Thx in advance,
Nico

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Some Problems With Beta3
« on: April 28, 2007, 05:27:21 pm »
the problem with sonata is still there, i found out that if you use
xfce4 you get another one on top of that.

So sonata-problem is paused for me until the release of the new files.
My skills in linux overall arent good enough to get the problems
solved by myself, sadly.


but now i found some new problems i investigate today/tonight: xfe and xffm
dont run under my xfce4-installation. xfe needs a "libFOX-1.4.so.0" i
cannot find in any feed, and xffm searches for the "libxfcegui4.so.3" i
didnt find either...

Anyway, i have the whole sunday to get everything running, bit by bit.

So Good Fight, good Night !

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Some Problems With Beta3
« on: April 28, 2007, 07:30:22 am »
ok, thx for the fast answer!

i got all of the packages from your feed, except python-fcntl and pyhton-crypto, i
found them on another beta3-feed..


Since my Beta3 is pretty unstable anyway, i dont think i could broke
anything more, but thx for the warning.

For an example, at my beta3 i can´t do a clean reboot without having the cf-card
taken out. If i forget it, i can´t mount the cf-card. (mount: special device /dev/hda1
does not exist)


I will try a new and clean install if i get anything running that i wanted to.
So far i just keep tracking every step including backing up every file i need.


EDIT: Ok, Sonata isnt running at last, so i deinstalled everything again and recover
with clean python & gtk-files. dateandtime.py etc are not starting anymore, so there
has to be an error somewhere, i hope i can overcome with the old gtk & phyton-files.
Anyway, xfce4 is now up and running.

Edit2: i kept Sonata (hope dies last  ), and after a clean install of the last versions
of gtk, gtk2 and pygtk i have all system tools running again.
Now Sonata starts with only 1 (!) error-message, it says it requires "pygtk 2.6.0 or newer" to run. mmmhh... i think ill go outside, take a cup of coffee in the beautiful sunshine over Berlin City, and investigate this further... i need a mp3-player with albumcovers on my Z, thats why i dont give up on sonata i guess

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Some Problems With Beta3
« on: April 27, 2007, 05:17:02 pm »
Hi there, i got everything running fine under pdaxrom Beta 3 on my C1000, only
a few things give me a headache.

1. xpdf (optimized version from the "new packages"-thread):
i cant use any of the shortcuts like "o" (for get the "Open File"-Window)
(so i cant use it)

in xterm he lists the following:
Code: [Select]
Error: No display font for ´Courier´
Error: No display font for...

where can i get all these lost display-fonts? is there a feed i missed?


2. gemz (from the "new packages"-thread):
if i try to start it, it closes immediately and says in xterm:
Code: [Select]
The font has not been loaded!
(i installed every font i could find in the beta3-feed (even the webfonts), still not functioning)

3. Sonata (from the "new packages"-thread):
i only got the following error-message:
Code: [Select]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "usr/bin/sonata", line 28, in ?
    import sonata
  File "usr/lib/phyton2.4/site-packages/sonata.py", line 32, in ?
    import urllib, urllib2
  File "usr/lib/phyton2.4/urllib2.py", line 90, in ?
Import Error: No module named base64



if you got some hints, anything would be fine

Thx in advance, and gn8.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Special Device /dev/hda1 Does Not Exist
« on: April 21, 2007, 08:25:09 am »
hi there, i have some kind of problem.

I just installed the newest release, r198, and didnt managed
to get the cf-card running. So i switched back to r121 where both cf-cards worked
before.

But after the installation i have the same problem. Both cards dont work


The Failure-Message inc. the mount-order is:

# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/cf
mount: special device /dev/hda1 does not exist



Before that i even have that Failure Message in the Bootup-Screen:

Mounting local FS: mount: special device dev/hda1 does not exist        [FAILED]


im totally out of options now, especially after i formatted one of the CF-Cards freshly with Fat16, and they are still not recognized on the Z (i can read them with no problems on my PC).




SOLVED !


I´ve reinstalled with my CF-Card inserted, now he recognizes both cf-cards again. Wahtever that was, don´t want to see something like that again

Zaurus - pdaXrom / New Pdaxrom Release R198
« on: April 21, 2007, 06:44:36 am »
ok, automount seems to be another problem i didnt even noticed

i get the mount working, but the CF-Cards seem to be empty under pdaxrom, what they are not. Maybe a driver problem or such *sigh*

For now, i go back to beta3, i need a working system today

Thx anyway

« on: April 20, 2007, 04:39:35 pm »
i have some problems myself with the new release, as for my both 1GB Hama CF-Cards canceled working.

i reinstalled through uboot two time, but i still cant access the CF-Cards.

One of them i freshly formatted with Fat16.

Is there a command to mount them manually ?


And i would like the commands for formating Memorycardds with ext2 on the Z, for
both the card and the cf please
I had written them down, but i forget where  

i just know it was something with "etx2mf..."...

[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=158047\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]


Hi,

no i havent. Ive installed now ffmpeg and libffmpeg and tried again, but the same Failure.

Ok so i tried ffmpeg with a mpg-file in the shell, but ffmpeg just tries to rerender the file.
So i tried at last mplayer file.pg direct in the shell with the following error:
libiconv.so.2: cannot open shared libraries.

Ok, so where to get these lib ?

i will try searching for it in the feeds... has to be there... thx for the hint

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Mplayer With Rc121
« on: April 05, 2007, 08:15:08 am »
Hello all together,

as you can imagine i got a problem. Its that i cant play Videos of any type
(mpg or avi) on my brand fresh installed pdaxrom rc121 (directly from
pdayrom.org).

Ive installed some files like mplayer_pre_0.8 and the xmmsmplayer-plugin with
the mpg123_0.59r from the original feed.

http://mail.pdaxrom.org/download/1.1.0r121...rus-Cxx00/feed/


Still it doesnt play any kind of vid (but its starts opening a window, but black, and
nothing happens).

I hope one of you could help me with this issue...

Thx in advance

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Any Gui For Mplayer Beside Xmms
« on: July 25, 2005, 04:39:08 pm »
Kino2 would be really great

I know it from Cackorom, and it runs fast, stable
and plays the most Videos in Fullscreen with a really
good framerate

I didnt get any video played with more than 6, maybe 8 FPS
in Fullscreen with XMMS
(thats because Zoom itself is Software-based, i reach
3-5 FPS with Zoom. But real 640x480-Videos dont get
over 6 or 8 FPS)

Greetz,
Nico

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Xmms: Max Filesize Video & Fullscreen
« on: July 25, 2005, 03:36:25 pm »
Hi there,

i tried to play a few Videos on my C750 the last Days and noticed
the following:

- a Video in 320x240 plays good, but not Fullscreen. If
i switch to "Software Zoom" i have about 2-3 FPS.
If i use a 640x480 Video it plays with 6-8FPS (Sound plays normal
speed). Is there anywhere a workaround for getting it Fullscreen?
(im talking about mpg-videos)

- what is the max Filesize you ever get running? (mpg, 320x240)
Because i tried a 200mb-File and XMMS just crashed


Greetz,
Nico

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Big Task: Setting Double Mouse Keys Def
« on: July 04, 2005, 01:51:35 am »
In Fact i never use Ok and Cancel in Portraitmode either

But the only Solution i see after pgas explanation is to use xmonobut.
The program still works, even in RC10, without any problems.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Ok, Kde Works; What About Gnome?
« on: July 03, 2005, 02:52:38 am »
ah, no, im afraid not.

In the "add New Item"-menu i only have:
-Launcher
-Desktop Switcher
-Graphical Pager
-Seperator
-System Buttons
-Systemtray


I now try a clean reinst of the extra-packages,
just to have something to work with until you post
the next hint

Greetz,
Nico

P.S.: Btw, i just got an error-message that i cant install
the plugins on the SD-Card. Just an issue for the next updates,
i install them in root again.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Ok, Kde Works; What About Gnome?
« on: July 02, 2005, 05:50:22 pm »
ok, then we located the problem.

If i rightclick on the desktop, nothing happens.
If i do the middle-click on the desktop, the "Workspace-menu" appears.

Right-Click everywhere else functions, but not on the desktop... piuh...
what can this be?
And thats why i cant resize the panel, and cant use the systrayplugin
till now i would guess

(btw., i put left & rightclick on the kanji-buttons as scoutme said)

Greetz,
Nico
