Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Installing Or Building Oz Or (angstrom) For Spitz

« on: January 03, 2007, 02:46:14 pm »

I take it the colon on the end of the URL is a typo?

Looks like Berlios is too busy at this time of the day, but other than that it ought to work.

General Discussion / Sl-c1000 Portability

« on: December 29, 2006, 11:10:20 am »

Typically I dont carry my Z around... but when I do... it is usually in my inner coat pocket... with wifi card in... because my Z is allergic to pocket lint :-)

But for long trips I have a backpack that I just throw it in... with my pdaxrom dev log notebook and my Z accessories...

[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=149463\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

i bought a leather case for my Z but its far too bulky for a shirt or trouser pocket
ok inside the  jacket though

I bought a shirt with a pocket with a button on it

far safer than the orig shirt  ( lean forward Z drops on floor WIMPER)
metal top has a few dents in it now ...

Maybe geek anser is velcro in shirt pocket instead of button (:-))

Python / Possible Build Problem With Python Pylint & Pychec

« on: November 16, 2006, 01:09:16 pm »

Zaurus 3200 Trying to Debug Python Program

on pymoney I can now get a devide by zero error  when I tap on a budget icon

( I have Posted The Traceback To The sourceforge List ) &
I have Tried a google search  and am part way through the python docs

I thought I would install pdb  ( python de bugger) and have a go myself ... so the FUN Starts
 


I Cannot find a python-pdb ipkg ??

import pdb does not work

Ok so I then installed  python-pylint & python-pychecker
 

Both appear to have a incorrect first line in /usr/bin/pychecker & /usr/bin/pylint
(They both say that python is in  /home/hrw/..I686 Directory & the Lib directory is set incorrectly also  ...)

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Avoid Nand For Storage

« on: November 14, 2006, 06:17:13 am »

I thought that the idea of Using internal NAND  was to Reduce Power Consumption I am rinning OZ on my 3200 & the battery life is approx Half that
of the sharp rom which only used the disk for Mp3s ??

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Open Zaurus £ Key

« on: November 08, 2006, 10:45:32 am »

I am Trying to Add a Uk Pound Key £ Its "Shift 3" on a UK Pc Keyboard

#I Noticed that the British Keyboard made it into OpenZaurus Multikey
(Works Great on My Z3200 )

 I am Trying To Get The Same symbol into The Zaurus  Keyboard ...
is Modyfying the 2.6 Kernel Keymap in/etc/ The Correct way to go ?

The Only Other Tweak is to Make The Shift & FN Keys Sticky

Python / Running Pymoney On Openzaurus

from StringIO import StringIO
ImportError: No module named StringIO

install python-io

looks like python-pickle misses a dependency on python-io.

I'll fix that, thanks.

If you're new to bb/oe development then there's a nice set of instructions to follow in the openembedded.org wiki to get you up and running and compiling your first application:

http://openembedded.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/GettingStarted

Please do make sure you have the required software (linked from the GettingStarted page) - http://openembedded.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/RequiredSoftware

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Hentges Rom: New Versioning System

« on: October 25, 2006, 12:35:15 pm »

More For The List :-

Games Billardz Display is Corrupt
Zaurus 3200 display does not rotate automaticaly when the screen is turned

How do I Force a App To Display Rotated & Full Screen  ??

The Daylight Savings Time is Not Set Correctly
(Its Correct For London But is Still GMT)

XMMS screen is tiny (2cm Square) it works though

Can Some Point Me TowardsThe Bugtracker

Great rom though, portabase is twice as fast as before

all i neeed now is to install  kopi 
tkckapital works but it needs resize & rotate !!

Ah, Opie is acting up  
That could be a problem since Opie is unmaintained. I will have a look.
tkc Apps (ie: Sharp-ROM apps) are completely unsupported, sorry.

OK I Know about TheTkcStuff Being Unsuppported, I cannot Get The Kompany To Port it to OE  It's All thats Stopping Me Going To OE  
I have had To Move From The Sharp Rom  As I Had No Ram Left
 
THE SHARP ROM  Would Randomly Kill Apps Due to Low Memory


On Hentages rom V1
    Running TkcKapital (RSS Size 32MB Ouch )
    Kopi  1 YearsWorth Of Appointments & data (RSS Size 20Mb)
    PortaBase (It has 2000 Entrys & Took 20 Secs to Load RSS Size 6.2Mb.)  

 I Installed The Upgrades From The Feed & It Seems To Have Cured The Timezone Bug  


  Also Why is OE not Using the Flash ERam ?? Using The Hdd Cuts Down on The
Battery Life

Thanks For Any Comments  The Rom Seems Good as I Can LoadAllThe Above
