[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']hi, i got this SL-5600 about 2 months ago, right before i start college again. the reason i bought it because it's cool keyboard and it's on linux (wow, free softwares!!) and that time i thought i can install a PocketPC in it. but later i found out i can't. I was going to use this for IMs and agenda. get it now and get a 10% off.[/span]

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'] It is listed on ebay now.. so go check it out.

i set the home space(32mb) as my root2, and when i install from feed, i choose root2 instead of the roo(regular,3mb left root)
but i always get the link problem and stuff i install won't run.

thank you so much for helping me. i really appreciate this.

What does /etc/ipkg.conf contain? Is there a line along the lines of:

dest blah /home/user

Please post the contents of this file (just any lines starting 'dest' will do).

It is possible to install stuff to the /home partition, but you need to know what it's called in ipkg.conf, then install there using the -d switch for ipkg.

For the dest line I gave (called blah), one would do the following:

ipkg install -d blah somepackage.ipk

Then run ipkg-link to create the symlinks like so:

ipkg-link mount /home/user

Software / Mplayer / Kino2 Only Quarter Size Video

« on: September 29, 2005, 02:42:19 pm »

my kino won';t even work. and after i install mplayer, i don't know where to use the program, i don't see an icon for mplayer
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=97272\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

MPlayer won't have an icon, because mplayer is invoked by kino.
I.e. kino handles all the playlist stuff and controls mplayer by starting it with the correct options if you hit "play" in tje kino GUI.

If you have installed all needed packages, it should work with compatible files.

Please recheck if you have installed the correct packages for your machine.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Sl5600, Root Too Small, Hpw To Expand It?

« on: September 27, 2005, 05:28:20 pm »

hi, i just bought a Zaurus SL5600, and install OZ3.5.3 with OPIE1.2
there is only 3086KB left in the root (where i install programs), and it's just not enough!
i tried to install programs in the home folder(has 34000KB for storage), which causing linking problems, and programs will never works.

does anyone know how to expand the root space? i mean, i don't even need that home to be 32mb. if i can get the root to 60MB would be great! do a partition expand? how?>

or how to solve the link problems?  

sorry, i am really new to zaurus, and i can't get the programs work.


[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']thanks![/span]

Software / Best Rom / Os

« on: September 27, 2005, 04:58:33 pm »

a simple search should get you plenty of hits, but here is the summary

sharpn rom is relatively decent, but old

cacko rom is a patched up sharp rom...much improved
tkc rom is also a patched up rom, but it hasn't been work since soon after 3.10's release.

OZ has lots of eye candy and lots of features.  Though generally thought of as less stable, the 5500 version should reasonably good.  Probably good for getting your hands dirty

pdaxrom is generally not for the 320x240 zaurii.  I'm not sure if they ported it over.

Each one is loved for different reasons.
