Cxx0 General discussions / New Comer - C860

« on: April 18, 2005, 09:18:08 am »

Hi ferdinauta,

Thank you very much for replying. After spending some times studying from the forum, finally try to key in the SSID, and the network connected through my Symbol card. I was so used to the CE.NET that I don't normally have to key in the SSID manually in my Sigmarion III.  

The Symbol ran and smiled with its green LED flashes.

I only manage to run my c860 up to this far, because I failed to install the  ipk files in the cacko's package installer, for some reason during the file installation, an error msg poped up saying the filename contain character which is not support inthe application and asking to change the filename, how am I suppose to change the file name while I couldn't even install the filemanager and zeditor.

Thanks for you reply, appreciate very much.

Nowaday, not many people interested to reply simple questions. Now only I understand this Zaurus is not user friendly to odinary people like me who don't posses much knowledge about the Linux.
Window CE.NET is still more user friendly.

Sharp ROMs / Cacko Rom 1.22 Is Available!

« on: April 18, 2005, 09:00:42 am »

After studying the msgs, finally got the Symbol card working, smiling all the way while surfing the internet, it is fast, and much faster than my the other unit of Sigmarion III.

Input of SSID in the c860 is the key to make the Symbol cf card running (but at the same timeI turned off the autoconnection)

Somehow, I still failed to install the ipk files (qpe-filemanager, zeditor) which are needed to edit the conf files. For some reason, during installing the ipk file, the installer will pop up an error msg "The filename of this package includes character this application can't handle. Please change the filename and retry install". Really need help on this.

Using the Konsole is tough for me which need some times to catch up.

Thank you very much.

but too bad until now nobody reply me for help. I have seen a few hints... I open up the MidnightCommander to check the /ect/pcmcia/..., but I do not know how to edit the config file, I have also seen the "Spectrum" in the /pcmcia/, is it means that the driver already pre-loaded in the cacko 1.22? What should I do further to make it detecting my Symbol card and connected?
Thank you.

Sharp ROMs / Symbol Wifi On Cacko - Need Help

« on: April 17, 2005, 12:09:35 am »

I just installed the cacko 1.22. Everything work perfectly accept could not get the Symbol Wifi to work.

I tried to install the driver file downloaded from the folowign site :

http://www.myzaurus.com/licSpectrum.asp

But during install installation process through Package Installer (file name listed was "spectrum24driver"), it prompted if to install at SD or internal Flash, Internal flash was selected24, installation process started, but later an error appeared on the screen telling "The filename of this package includes character this application can't handle. Please change the filename and retry install".

The original filename of the domnloaded file is "spectrum24driver_0.3.4_arm.ipk", but appeared in the Zaurus (after coied from my PC to the SD card that inserted tot he Zaurus) showed only " spectrum24driver_0".

Please advise what should I do to have the driver installed, or, under Cacko 1.22, there is other driver that I need to use.

Thank you.

I am totally new to the Linux, so it is very brave for me to buy the Zaurus, some more found that everything including the manual and CDROM are all in Jap.  Need help to start using the C860.

Please also advise how to change to C860 english ROM.

Thank you. :(
