General Discussion / Which Linux system for my Zaurus

For the most part things stay the same.  Their a few differences, but I beleive those only matter if you get involved in technical things.

I would love to start helping with the OZ project.  Right now I don't have much time, but maybe in a month I will.  When I do start I will need help in what to do, as I am a newbie to linux.  I have gone back and forth thru the years of using it.  But I have some  hobby goals that I want to do under linux, so I hope this will get me going more.

General Discussion / Which Linux system for my Zaurus

Just to let people know, OZ 3.5.1 has just came out.  I like it on my SL-5600, and it is stable.  More packages for it are being compiled right now, so I don't have much on my system, but I have the important things.

Software / Browser to view GMail

« on: September 18, 2004, 12:12:38 am »

I take it you do not like GMail for what ever reason.  I looked at you site, and it does not bring out anything that I have not already hurd rumors on.  I wonder where all these rumors started, maybe M$, they sure don't like them.  Anyways.  Beleive what you want.  Some of us, really like the service.  Sure I wish their was an easier way to delete messages, but I also don't like the BIG adds at yahoo.  I also prefer to be bugged by adds of things that I care about, and not by every subject in the world.  What email service does not do some sort of scanning, Yahoo does, by the way I also use yahoo.  I think an honest question to ask, are these concerns real, or are people playing into fear.

Well back to the original Post, I quess no one knows if Firefox has an embeded version yet.  I know 1.0P came out not long ago.

General Discussion / Sprint PCS Compact Flash CF 2031 Wireless Card

« on: September 15, 2004, 04:57:01 pm »

I am wondering about getting this card, Sprint PCS Compact Flash CF 2031 Wireless Card, to access Sprint Wireless Internet and to use the Zaurus as a phone.  Does anyone know if this card will work on the SL-5600 and if it will work on the SL-6000?  With voice on both.  I am wondering about getting the SL-6000, for multiple reasons.

Is there a version of mc for SL-5600?  I sure would like to try it if it allows to open a 10 MB file on SL-5600.  Where can I find out info about this ROM?

Software / How to edit a large text file?

« on: September 15, 2004, 12:57:59 am »

I had one thought, that OZ was using opie as its "Window Manager", so maybe one of the opie programs installed on the sharp ROM will work.  Anyone know which one I should use?  Here is the url for opie 1.0.3 http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/stable/sharprom/ if someone knowledgable is willing to look for me.  I saw a couple that could work, but I am hoping someone can tell me which one uses memory more efficiently.

I have been reading about swap files, and I may or may not try it.  But I came across something that I beleive is related.  Turning off Fast load on apps frees up a lot of memory.  I unchecked fast load on: calandar, address book, todo list, email, voice recorder.    Now I have about 14MB free, but I can not open a 4.2MB file with Text Editor or Hancom Word.  Why are these programs using so much memory.  Where I had this 4.2MB file opened under OZ 3.3.6-pre1 with only 8MB.  What is going on?  Is it because of the different apps use memory more effitivly?  Any ideas?
