C1000/3x00 Hardware / Swapping The Sl-c3000's Internal Flash Memory?

« on: September 05, 2005, 02:11:17 pm »

just pried apart my sandisk 256M mini cruiser and it contains a K9K2G08U0M 256x8 chip. once I'm done grilling steaks, I'll try a graceful removal and reinstall to get my micro-min soldering skills back in shape.

Looks like is chip is pin compatible with the 16x8 chip in the 3000.

It looks like the 16x8 chip is pin compatible with the 128x8 chip, but I'm not sure the bigger chips are. I'll dig up the specs while I work up the courage to do the surgery. It seems that 128x8 would be lower risk since sharp uses 128x8 already in the 3100 and the 1000

Has anyone ever considered swapping the 16x8 flash in the 3000 for a 128x8 flash? I've not done any tracing to see if lines are disbled, but just a cursory inspection of pictures on the web (http://photos6.flickr.com/7220544_efbaef7180_b.jpg) of the c1000 and c3000 suggests that there isn't a lot of difference in the hardware.

Those part numbers on the flash are:
K9F2808U0C for the 16x8 in the c3000
K9F1G08U0A for the 128x8 in the c1000

Linux Applications / Emacs And Clisp Packages

« on: September 03, 2005, 12:34:48 pm »

Please find ipkgs for a console emacs (no x11 or qtopia yet) and clisp at http://www.2gn.com/~jjorgens/zaurus/feed/

For those who are unfamiliar with these packages, here are some brief descriptions.

emacs is an editor that contains a lisp interpreter, mail/news reader, IDE (for many languages), and optionally a web browser. This package is not GUIfied, so you should simply run emacs in a terminal window. It is a very large package compared to other zaurus packages, so make sure you have room before installing it. This build installs in /usr/local which is probably ill-behaved. This package requires libncurses4, although it is not in the dependencies list.

clisp is a common lisp implementation. It seems to be fairly ANSI Common Lisp compliant. This clisp package requires libreadline5 (which is also in the feed).

These packages were compiled on my SL-C3000 with no special flags. Both packages run fine on my zaurus with its big disk, but I don't claim that it will run properly on any other zaurus. That said, if you run these packages, please let me know how you fared.
