Zaurus - pdaXrom / Ratoc USB Host

« on: September 20, 2004, 06:46:06 am »

I am trying to use the drivers from this site. REX-CFU1 Device Driver for Linux Zaurus

No errors were reported during the install and the card appears to be recognized, however the device files are not present. Example: USB storage devices like external HDD's and flash card readers use sda1. Could someone show me how to create these files?

TIA,
Nick

Accessories / Back Charging

How much of a risk is it? My current battery pack uses 4 NiMH. If I use a diode will the internal resistance drop the voltage to the point where I need to add more batteries? Also, does anyone know what varience the Zaurus will tolerate on the input voltage?

I\'m trying to connect with my Siemens S56 (Cingular), and the login goes fine (i.e. I get the globe). However I can\'t stay connected for more than 30 seconds. Any suggestions? Also, where are the log files for the login?

Thanks,

Software / Crimson Fields problem on the new Cacko QT ROM

« on: April 16, 2004, 04:52:22 pm »

I\'m trying to get it to run on my 860. When I click the icon it goes to the \'Please Wait\' screen for changing resolutions for a second then crashes. If I run it from the terminal, or set it to non-magnified mode I get a white bar with some color along the left side of the screen and I have to do a hard reset. I got all the libs listed on the homepage. There are three sdl libs and zlib (versions match). Has anyone else run into this? Is there a log file somewhere I could check for error message output?

What kind of printer support, if any, do AbiWord and gnumeric have? Are CF USB cards supported?

Software / Problem with the Sharp media player on tkc ROM

« on: January 04, 2004, 06:54:09 am »

Whenever I try to play an mp3 file the playlist view vanishes and I get Qtopia, but the player is still open. If I hit cancel then the playlist pops up. Here is what I get from the command line.

Code: [Select]

QPixmap::convertFromimage: Cannot convert a null image mpegplayer

QPixmap::SmoothScale: Cannot convert a null image mpegplayer

Note: This is not an exact reproduction; these lines are repeated.

Then when I try to run an mp3

Code: [Select]

Illegal Instruction

At this point I get dumped to the prompt, but the player is still open. If I click the icon on the taskbar the playlist view comes back up. However I can play .wav files. All the video files work too. In the playlist (and in the files tab) view the mp3s have only a generic documents icon. Recenlty I installed gaim and had a problem where its icon didn\'t show up. I found a post here that gave the following fix.

Don\'t install libpng, instead make a symlink to libqte.

Code: [Select]

ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0

I don\'t if the gaim problem is related to the media player.
