If you install hentges rom, it already has Konqueror installed in the CardFS.  It really saves on hair pulling!

I got the same error with my 128MB SD card.  I don't know if this is stated elsewhere, but I found that the 64-0 kernel doesn't provide enough space for the card-fs install (I think the amout of links required exceeds the small ram storage in the 64-0 image).  I tried the next size down (58-6) and it worked just fine.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Media Player For Opie

OK, I can get XMMS to work on OZ 3.5.2, and played an mp3 to test it.  However, after searching the forums I am unclear which libs and/or codecs are needed to make it play video.  I would like to play mpeg and avis (Divx and xvid).  There seems to be good guidance on encoding, but not configuring for playback.

If I get it worked out, I will put together a guide....to give back to the forum

BTW, love the work on OZ and Opie guys...keep it up!

Is there a way I can install all my programs to my cf card without installing them to root?

At the command line, use the folllowing command:

Code: [Select]

ipkg -d cf install name-of-package.ipk
Then link with ipkg-link.....

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Problems With Getting Konqueror

« on: June 27, 2005, 06:37:28 pm »

konqueror: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I got this same error till I found the answer on the forum.  I was installing my programs to my sd card and not root.  The sd card was formatted in FAT and not ext2.  In order to properly link the packages, it must be formatted in ext2.  Another issue is the GUI package manager in opie, which (according to multiple posts) is not very stable for installing software.   So, I downloaded konqueror and its dependancies and installed them to the sd card via the command line:

Code: [Select]

ipkg -d sd install name-of-package.ipkg
Then link after each install

Code: [Select]

ipkg-link add name-of-package
Hope this helps

Everything that I install on my zaurus should I place it on the sd card, or just the applications and ipkgs like lib and kernel updates on the zaurus ram? I'm still confused with that.

I am using the 64MB image in my collie, so I install and link everything to the SD card.  That way, when I swap my CF card for the wireless one, I can still run the browser and other internet tools.  So, you'd install like so:

Code: [Select]

ipkg -d sd install name-of-package.ipk
Then link the program (or libs or anything else you just installed via commandline) like so:

Code: [Select]

ipkg-link add name-of-package-here
Hope that helps!
