Sharp ROMs / Watapon Rom Test

« on: September 01, 2005, 11:03:39 am »

Hi, I have been reading good things about the Watapon rom, so I decided to give it a test, It looks great!

I have one snagg tho, and im not sure if its a problem with the distro or not.

I followed the steps, doing the flash from CF, then reset again and doing a format so I know i have the system installed correctly.  

When ever i try to execute either the web browser or the email client (both located under the internet tab) i run out of memory and the system wants to shut down.

I run a SL-5600 with a PXA255 chip, which also brings me to the 2nd comment, does anyone know if Watapon is compatible with the PXA255 ?

Any help would be great as I really like this flash version.

Thanks

Mike

I have a major problem, I have been looking all over the internet for a good NAND backup for the SL5600, PXA255 version and I am still at a loss.

I thought I would post in the forum as well as my original post under 5x00 hardware.

I can supply a ftp site for you to upload too and instructions on how to make the backup.   

Thanks

5x00 Hardware / Pxa250 Or Px255 How Can You Tell What You Have ?

« on: August 17, 2005, 10:45:45 am »

I'm not sure with your older rom, but my system info has a cpu section (it might be because I'm on cacko rom).

The ol' linux way is by console command line

Code: [Select]

cat /proc/cpuinfo[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=92167\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Thanks! -  I new it was something simple.

5x00 Hardware / Pxa250 Or Px255 How Can You Tell What You Have ?

« on: August 17, 2005, 10:18:01 am »

Hi, I have purchased a SL-5600 and was about to flash to OZ 3.5.3 but I noticed with some additional digging that there is 2 kernel's one for the 250 with the patch and one for the 255 without the patch.

So, before I start this flash process can someone let me know how I can tell what I have for a cpu ?  The unit come with the standard sharp 1.32 rom.

Thanks
