I'm not saying that adding lynx isn't a good idea, but give 'links' a try (it's already there). I like it better (it does frames too!!).
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=123680\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I tried to give it a try, but: "libncurses.so.5 not found, no such directory". Sorry!

Please add lynx to the feeds!
- And: I cannot install ipkg-utils because of missing dependencies to "python", what exactly is the relevant package? I have installed some pythons but no result.

- And: Does ipkg-utils include the programms to re-compile arm.deb to .ipk?

Thank you for your help!

Please add the tarball-e-image for tosa with the right kernel. It is expecting 3.4rc kernel. gpe-tarball works well.
I am facinated by your work, especially altboot is fine.
Thank you!

I'm trying to get a 6000W this summer. If any of the developer is interested, I'm willing to send my 6000L to one of the developers (for up to 6 months) for testing when I get my 6000W.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=121241\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Radiance, I think he is offering the 6000L, not the 6000W.

Also, I am awaiting feedback on my withdrawal of contributions to Guylhem's rom. His project seems to be abandoned. If I don't hear from him saying his project is still alive, I would like to also contribute to this rom.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=121286\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Hiya mate !

Yes i think too. I really hope for the first real stable fully working 2.6 kernel+gpe for the 6000 models. Even if no one of the current developers or visitors can't do it then if the reward amount is high enough i know various professional sources who are able to do it.

So i invite EVERYONE who has a 6000 and wants to use its full power in what is was meant to be then please contribute what you can miss. You don't need to pay it right now, but you word counts.

Thanks !!

I am using tosa and I am willing to contribute - with a little sum of money, but also with contributions. I am especially interested in using altboot, for I need a good managment of adresses and contacts (there opie is excellent), but also I need a good small computer for writing and so on (with gpe or e). As you can see from my last post in the overall release-thread I didn't manage to use altboot on tosa yet.
So, I am there willing to test and to discuss. Count on me!

But it looks altboot with root fs on SD is not usable righ now. It's pitty.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=120756\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Funny, I use that day in day out....
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=120999\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Ok, then please help me. I am on tosa and have tried the experimental altboot version. When booting either sd (1GB in 3 partitions, 2 ext2, one vfat)) or cf (one partition ext2) it hangs in the /dev/loop0-sequence. It cannot read the file-system. OZs are stored in the /boot-images/ folder and they are correctly recognized.
Normal boot into opie works fine.
Thank you in advance for advice

Are you sure you are trying to boot a ext2 loop-image and not a .jffs2 fashable rootfs?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=121118\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
Ok, got that. Be patient with me, I am only a philosopher. But altboot is still resisting. It had problems accepting the sd-card configuration mentioned above, with a splitted card (500 mb vfat and 500 ext2) it is more happy. After having learned by myself how to transfer bz2-archives into tar.gz ones (why that, by the way? why do we find files in the feed we cannot use?), the rootfs-building process of the e-17 image went fine ... just until the end. Again altboot is not satisfied with loop0, next time I will write the exact formulation, but it is looking for something that doesn't exist.
Has anybody here installed e-17 image via altboot on tosa using altboot? Am I doing something wrong or is there a mistake inside...?

Thanx!
The message is: losetup:ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: No such device or adress

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Oz 3.5.4 Rc Bug & Work-around List
« on: January 08, 2006, 07:05:06 am »
Still struggling with wlan:
3.4.RC on tosa, gpe. I have flashed R.C onto a cleaned tosa (after nando backup), before I ve been using opie, everything worked fine, I am only not satisfied with the poor text-programmes. For I am a philosopher who is writing, this is important. So gpe because abiword is available. But 3.5.3 was too bugy, installing abiword made the gui instable. So i have tried 3.4. It is really a big step forward, congratulations and thank you for your work!! Only one thing drives me crazy:

Wlan does not work, behaviour: network is detected, tosa is registered, web browser can display google, but nothing more. ipkg doesn’t update (starts with the process, then hangs.).
Is there a workaround?

I ve done some more testing using ping and traceroute. I can ping every http-adress I want, but traceroute stops at about position 12. or 13. It simply doesn't go further. IPKG doesn't work, also sylpheed. Is the ip6-bug responsible for that?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Cannot Create Symlink

Use -force-depends in this case - it may be that the diet-x11 lib is named differently (different minor version or something), or perhaps the apps in question were built against a slightly later build of x11/diet-x11.

In any case, it shouldn't make any difference, just force it.

Oh, it does. I ve already done that (installing with force-depends), after mounting cf with sylpheed and log out/log in I get the icon, when tabbing a black square pops up - and remains black.

When installing Thunderbird I get the message that something from tmp/sdgdjhds is a directory and another failure report - Thundebird cannot be configured.

Any help?

Convinced!
So I reformated my cf-card to etx2 and reflashed gpe (because of the availibility of abiword). The sd-card with VFAT will be used for file transfer.
Everything seems to be fine (to have a good word processor is really something) UNTIL I have tried to install an e-mail client (by the way: why is there none with the image?).
Sylpheed and Thunderbird are complaining about the same missing library (libx11-6) - but it is there; when I want to install it via ipkg it says it is up-to-date.
What to do?

Tnanx again for help.

« on: May 14, 2005, 09:34:46 am »
Thank you again for help and hints. But: I didn't change anything until now. When first install didn't work I ve tried another one. Just ignored the symlink-messages. With this maybe diletant procedure  there are running on VFAt formated CF and SD cards (both 256Mb) without probs on my Zaurus 6000:
+KoPi
+opie record
+opie-write
+ wellenreiter
+ U-Bahn-Navigator
+ Gutenbrowser
+ formatter
+ Kstars
+ Dict
+ various themes, fonts and extensions
+opie-embedded console.

The installing procedure is always the following:
install (best via console, for packagemanager likes to hang), then ipkg-link mount the card, then reboot, then have fun...

Only I am missing a good word processor for I am writing a lot... But this subject has already been discussed. Hancom Word doesnot install. We need to have a light office-package!!!

So: Is there an explaination why it works in this case against all recommendations?

Misiurei: you will probably benefit by setting up multiple partitions on your SD card. Instructions are at https://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=Multip..._a_CF_/_SD_card. Keep the first partition as VFAT and set up a second one as ext2. Then make sure you install packages to the second partition (edit /etc/ipkg.conf accordingly).

Thanx all for help - especially the last hint is helpfull. But strange things are happening since my post. Most programs I have installed (on Zaurus SL6000L) like opie-writer/reader, kstars, etc.. do in fact work on the Vfat-SD card; only Gutenbrowser produces probs, but I have just managed to test-download two texts which I can read. If this behaviour remains/sustains (I am not sure about the right word), then I won't change the format (in my case I would mean to re-install all the programs)

Also: When flashing OZ I made the mistake to format my SDcard with ext2, and then had to re-format it. Suddendy neither my notebook nor the Zaurus could recognise the SD card, so I repeated the procedure again and again. Don't want to have it again.
By the way: Is there any explaination for the need to have a VFAt card for flashing and an ext2 card for software???

What format is the SD card?

VFAT - for I needed it for flashing.

Hi, when installing to sd (for example kopi) I get the message "Cannot create symlink" to various places, e.g. "./opt/QTPalmtop/lib/linmikrokcal.so.1 to libmikrokcal.so."
Then I ipkg-link mount to sd, which runs fine, reset and: there is the applet and it works sometimes (as in the case of kopi) but in others not.  What is wrong - or: What do I do wrong?
Thanx for help
