Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Victory At Last-praise Be To The Hentges Rom!

« on: August 08, 2005, 11:39:13 am »

Okay, after I had massaged a 64-0 install of Hentges ROM by adding in IQnotes and getting all my info to be recognized, got email working through QTmail, got zbedic working (even with wikipedia), got Opera working..was I happy - no.  I could not get the Sandisk Connect Plus card working as a network card and that was the main reason I was trying the Open Zaurus setup to begin with.

So...to cut to the chase...I bravely gave it all up and installed the 40-24 image of Hentges ROM and installed the 3 ipks necessary for the Sandisk card (hostap-utils_0.3.7-r0_arm.ipk,prism3-firmware_1.8.3-r2_arm.ipk,prism3-support_1.0.0-r0_arm.ipk) from my CF card instead of using my Belkin network card and the feed AND installed to RAM!!  Put in the Sandisk card and it connected with a beautiful green light.

Thanks to Hentges for an amazing system to install OZ.  Every package installs smoothly with a satisfying..."symbolic links successfully created" unlike trying to install the raw OZ ROM which generates errors all over the place.  Also, the Sharp compats work perfectly....well...you get the flickering bar for some reason but other than that.

Okay,  think I'll quit for the day while I'm ahead.

Thanks for the advice on getting Sandisk Connect PLus working!  How did you get Qtmail working with the Hentges ROM?  I got the package with libraries included and added the lines to the profile but each time I attempt to install it I get an error indicating it can not locate qpe-base and associated qpe libraries.
