5x00 General discussions / Saving Progress In Snes9x In Sl-5500

In order to save you have to press Fn + 6 (or Fn + Y)

To load you have to press Shift + Fn +6 (Shift + Fn + Y)

Hopefully this solves your problem.

I tried that, but for some reason it seems not to work. I believe that works in the clamshell models, and I think I read that the collies don't support multiple key presses (I migth be wrong). Anyhow, no luck so far.

Software / Ipk Package For Gnu Octave?

« on: January 27, 2006, 02:24:42 am »

Is there a package out there with Octave for Sharp 3.13 ROM? I know Octave is out there for OpenZaurus, but I have had no success in finding it (do I need to compile from source)?

Shift+6-9   state save

Any ideas?

Sharp ROMs / How Do I Install The Sharp 3.10 Rom?

« on: January 14, 2006, 08:30:50 pm »

I just got my Zaurus SL-5500 today. It came with the theKompany ROM, and I would prefer to try the Sharp 31.0 or 3.13 ROMs first (later I'll try other ones).

I've never used a Zaurus or PDA before (I've used linux for several years though), so I don't know much about the process of flashing a ROM. I understand that a mistake might result on damage to the Zaurus, so I don't want to do trial and error. Please, don't assume I know how to flash ROMs, that is why I need some help and I'm having some trouble understanding the how-to guides.

Also, I tried downloading the 3.10 update from the Sharp site (http://www.myzaurus.com/ROMupdate5.asp), but for some reason “Install SL-5500 v3 System ROM” program is saying that it cannot connect with the Zaurus (I assume that it needs the Sharp ROM in the Z instead of the theKompany?).

I should add that I installed the drivers and QTopia desktop on one of my computers, and when I stick my Z in its cradle, a new LAN appears (It says "SL Series (NDIS 5)") that is connected, but QTopia doesn't let me Sync. Does that mean that there is a problem with the connection? Do I need to configure QTopia somehow before it can see the Z? Do I need to do some sort of configuration on the Z? (When I press SYNC on the cradle, it gives an error saying "Communication was aborted"). Would putting the Sharp ROM fix the problem?
