Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Cannot Sync Linux To 3.5.3 Collie

« on: May 25, 2005, 06:45:50 pm »

The sync attempt is recognized by the Z. The screen flashes sync Multisync. However the log  shows Failed to connect, Failed to load data.

Has anyone gotten multisync to work and what were the hangups?

I have multisync working fine on my Ubuntu desktop. Note that 3.5.3 is the first OZ release I've ever used, so I never made any symlinks.

What you may be running into is a problem that others have mentioned, where there's a new level of default security for the PDA: the root password is actually set to something. I'd reset the root password for your Zaurus in the console, then make sure your multisync settings match that new password.

It would be nice to report those things to our bugtracker @ bugs.openembedded.org or via mailing list oe@handhelds.org - patches would be appreciated as well

Alright, I just didn't see that many bugs on the bugtracker, so I wasn't sure if it was really in use.

But I'll certainly start reporting these kinds of things to it as I discover them if that's what would be useful for you guys.

I've got every feed possible except for a machine feed

guess where those packages are?

Yes - in machine related feed (and updated libqte2 in upgrades).

So my question would be, where is the proper place to report actual problems with dependancies in the feeds? I've just installed OZ 3.5.3 from scratch on my 5500, added the machine specific feed, and I've noticed there's some weird issues with some of the task-* packages. One of them, for instance, depends on "ssh", but can't seem to figure out that dropbear and openssh-ssh provide "ssh". As well, it seems perfectly happy to try and install openssh-ssh or openssh-sshd when dropbear is installed, and then just dies when files conflict.

I'd be more than happy to document and report these kinds of problems so that they can get sorted out for the next release, if I just knew where the proper place to do that was.
