Is there any specific reason for why it's not open source?

The source code sucks =)

I'm going to wait until there is a full *.ipk release for the Zaurus with dependencies listed, (and where to get them), or included.

I could only compile a version for an SL-5500 with original Sharp ROM, because that's all we got right now. Since there are many ROMs and different devices out there it's really difficult to get this thing to work everywhere so if you're really interested you can take an active part, join #milkytracker on Espernet and help us.

The IPGK will work on an original Zaurus SL-5500 without any new roms flashed and without any special libraries linked. Just plain SDL but the libSDL-1.2 library is contained in the package. No need to search for any libs.

How would I get that to work in Sharp ROM?
CackoLite 1.23

I have no compiling experiance, would the pdaXrom version work in Cacko?

I managed to compile a version for the SL-5500 today and it's running really great. I'm not sure if this binary will also work on non-PDA versions, maybe you can tell me.

I've tried compiling about half a dozen trackers for the Zaurus, but any that did compile were too slow to do much with, because of their floating point requirements.  Your project sounds interesting though, if it uses a  fixed point engine.  Keep us posted with any news.

As you seem to have experience with compiling for the Zaurus and as I don't have access to an SL-C860, will you help trying to compile MilkyTracker for your device? Visit #milkytracker on espernet if you're interested.

I would help test if it ran under pdaXrom.

Where is the difference when compiling a program to run on an original Sharp ROM?

I would use it to make music. I've used Frootyloops and Reason to make music.

Then don't expect too much. Trackers and Sequencers are quite different concepts, maybe before using my program you should check out other Desktop Trackers first and see if they suit you. But a tracker is quite powerful if you get used to it.

Does this need pdaxrom, or will it run on Sharp roms?

I'm not yet familiar with the Zaurus environment(s), but I think it's the original Sharp ROM.

The screen resolution is not an issue. I already have a version of my app running on WinCE (>= 3.0) based PocketPCs running in 320x240 landscape:

Hi there,

I'm currently porting my music making software called MilkyTracker to Linux using SDL and I was
wondering if there are people interested in having a port for Zaurus as well as I recently found
somebody who lends me his 5500.
It will probably take "some" work and I'm only doing it if there are enough people interested in it.
Simply respond to this thread if you think it'll be useful.

Edit:
I've got it working now on the SL-5500. It runs great. I've also created a IPKG package, contact me if you're interested.

Cheers
