Zaurus - pdaXrom / Zpsx: High Performance Psx Emulator For The Zaurus

« on: July 24, 2007, 01:04:49 pm »

I think the most you can say without getting banned/censored is, "Google it." Unless you're talking about games that were never sold and homemade (homebrew). But those are hard to find.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Wpa Settings Integration Into Lan&wifi Config

« on: May 24, 2007, 06:10:22 pm »

daniel3000, have you made any progress with this?
I tried it but cannot get my card, (Ambicom WL1100C-CF) to connect to my router using WPA
Using this same card in Cacko on my other zaurus, connects with no problems with WPA. I used the instructions at tyrannozaurus under "Cacko"

I know meanie suggested using wifi-radar, but for the life of me, I cannot find the "WPA driver" that is needed to use WPA in wifi-radar.

I think the WPA driver is hostap, because that's what I type in as an argument to wpa_supplicant when I start it manually.

Edit:I just found that wifi-radar defaults to using eth1 instead of wlan0. To fix this, in /etc/wifi-radar.conf, replace "interface = eth1" with "interface = wlan0".

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Problem Compiling Driver For Usb Wifi Dongle

I believe you would have to set up a build environment on an full-sized computer. I've never done it, but this looks to be the right direction.

I decided to reinstall everything, so never mind.

General Discussion / Undelete On Jffs2?

« on: October 25, 2006, 02:27:21 am »

Today, I deleted /usr/bin/ as well as a large portion of /usr/share/ by sudo tar tzf /mnt/card/data.tar.gz|sudo rm -r. In retrospect, I obviously shouldn't have done that. I'm quite stressed and annoyed that I have no recent backups, so I was hoping that there was some way to recover files from my flash. I'm running pdaXrom beta3 on a C3100 with the full-size root partition.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Fsck For Jffs2 - Some New Points

I mean... I dont think it is a problem... but is there a way to force the writes?

It only writes during a proper shutdown or when it runs out of buffer.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Zbedic For Debian Source Available

« on: July 27, 2006, 11:25:00 pm »

The readme requests:

Code: [Select]

A.1 header files and libraries for 'qt' and 'sqlite' must be
installed together with their pkgconfig files.It then proceeds to reference Debian dev packages and a moc command in qt (as opposed to qte). It may be easier to for someone else with the prerequisites and/or know-how to do it.

In summary, I'm asking for either:

• Instructions on compilation
• Binaries
• Ipkg
• Other help?

Play the game as Sephiroth it's only a legend...

Unless he used a cheating device, as Sephiroth is a character avalible in the Nibelheim flashback. Although he is AI controlled, but that could probably be fixed in a similar manner.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Wi-fi Problems

« on: July 17, 2006, 04:02:18 pm »

I also have trouble with WPA with wpa_supplicant where it can take me up to 30 or 40 tries to connect. I haven't been able to use WEP with any network except my main network at home, possibly because it uses hostapd. For the record I am running beta2 on a C3100 with an Ambicom WL1100C-CF.

To initialize my card for WPA I use the following script:

Code: [Select]

echo Reseting card...
cardctl reset 0
echo Terminating dhcpcd
dhcpcd -k wlan0
sleep 1
echo Terminating wpa_supplicant...
wpa_cli  terminate
echo Starting wpa_supplicant...
wpa_supplicant -B -dd -iwlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dhostap
echo Starting dhcpcd...
dhcpcd wlan0
With WEP it sometimes claims to be... now it works! I currently have come to the conclusion that it was the interference, regardless of the fact that the router was in the same room, because there were three other networks. Or it might be Netgear.

By the way, is beta2 compatible with this ethernet adapter? My old one had one of those compact flap things to hold the cable in place that broke and I need a new one by Wednesday. I also have a Staples gift card.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / New Zaurus Software Effort

I personally would also like to see WPA support built-in and multiple virtual consoles. It would also be nice if bvdd was safer because sometimes crashes hard on me. I've also had this bug where I have trouble connecting to any protected wireless network. I can rarely connect to WEP networks.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Hardware problems with pdaXrom..

« on: June 04, 2006, 08:47:06 pm »

I've been having trouble with USB to serial adapters. The first one I tried was a Belkin F5U109 USB Serial Adapter. The driver reported by dmesg is the Magic Control Technology USB-RS232 converter driver v1.1 (mct_u232.c). It appeared to work at first, but then I realized that sending data did not work. So, I purchased an IOGear GUC232AWM USB to Serial Adapter. When I connected it, dmesg reported that it was a PL-2303 converter. It seems to function well, but it refused to function with the two programs that didn't work with earlier, though it seems to do more. The two programs are GPSBabel and sendMap (a statically-linked x86 binary with user space qemu).

I've been trying for awhile to get a deleo usb gps device working on a C1000. When i attach the gps the output from dmesg shows the pl-2303 converter attached and says it has attached it to ttyUSB0. Im using beta4 now and cant find ttyUSB anything in /dev (i have seen it in previous versions though). I was interested to hear you say "It  seems to function well". I'm a bit new at Zaurus (or even linus) devopment and was planning on trying cat /dev/ttyUSB0 to see the raw output from the gps to check if that was working before i then go on the get gpsd running. But since i now can't find ttyUSB0 and don't know what else to try I am stuck. Is there something i'm overlooking or some other package i need to install?

Thanks guys.

I've been using beta2 as neither beta4 nor beta3 was not quite working out for me. I did not get to testing my USB serial device, so I never tried it myself. So I don't know.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Psx Running On The Zaurus

« on: May 16, 2006, 06:22:47 pm »

Is this a joke?
There is not way Zaurus can handle psx. lol
This has got to be a joke!
It's impossible!
It bearly runs FireFox!
Tell me this is a joke!

Update- Heck, Visual Boy Advance is bearly playable! ---Gameboy emulator!

I agree it sounds too good to be true, but from what I have read the PSX cpu is very easy to emulate in comparison to other cpus, so I presume this gives it a boost over harder systems to emulate. Firefox runs slowly because it has not been designed for portable devices, and firefox is a whole different kind of app.

I've used it before, and I was amazed. It worked at about half speed on FF7. Maybe it was better... perhaps 75%.

C1000/3x00 General discussions / Sl-c3100 Refuses To Boot

I can the D+B menu, which seems to be good news, but the maintenance menu will not come up when I power on using using the OK button combo. I've tried restoring the NAND ROM using my last NAND backup made with the D+B menu and the file provided on Trisoft, but the problem persists. Any suggestions?

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Is It Possible To Port The Java Library Rxtx?

« on: April 22, 2006, 01:44:55 am »

What I am really requesting here is a jamvm-compatible version of the serial library RXTX for pdaXrom. So, anyone willing to compile a package?

The reason I would like it is so I could send Garmin maps to my GPS receiver while away from home. The only tool I was able to find was GPSExplorer, a Java-based application requiring commlib. If anyone could find a different application for this task (preferably with compiled or easily compilable dependencies), I would be equally glad to have that.

Thank you very much.

Edit: While I'm requesting things, how would I get the libraries required to compile wxWindows applications?
