I'm running OZ 3.5.3. If I add an install location. I can install some apps, but not many. I've been getting linking errors like crazy if I try to install a few apps to an SD card.

Also, has anyone gotten sword to work with OZ 3.5.3? Sword is crashing on me.

General Discussion / Repair Cost

Called sharp and they said that the Z has no operating system on it, and that they will have to flash it (how it got no os is beyond me, I know the images were fine, thats another story). I was told that there is a $50 inital diagnostic fee + $10 shipping fee. How much would it cost to reflash it. I'm looking for a ballpark figure. I'm on an extremely tight budget right now, so I need to know the cost.

« on: April 19, 2005, 12:21:58 pm »

I can not boot my Z (5600) at all. I had tried to flash it with an old image, now I don't get anything. I can get the maintence menu, but when I tell it to update, it turns off and then I get nothing. Is there anything I can do?

Security and Networking / Aggreavtion with wireless

« on: September 03, 2004, 12:07:57 pm »

I'm using the Zynergy rom on my 5600 with the pre-emptive kernel post here on the zug. I want to be able to use iwconfig to change my card rate. I've noticed using the gui tool, it seems I'm stuck at 11Mb. When I try to set my bitrate I get this error:

Set failed on device eth0 ; Function not implemented

I've tried installing wireless tools but I get a package error. How can I fix this? Also how can I fix the package issue. I've had alot of pacakge that installing from the terminal will fail because the package is not right or something. I have to install from the terminal because the ipkg gui will quit when I try to install. ANy help is appreciated.

Linux Applications / What PIM Apps do you use

« on: June 02, 2004, 10:22:38 am »

I\'m thinking about writing some apps or something for the Z. I have a 5600, with no syncing software in linux. I know there is multisync, and was thinking about writing a 5600 connector for that, along with some other PIM app stuff. More input the better.

Is there a place in the midwest that I can get someone to fix my Z? Its still under warrenty, but somehow (I don\'t know how) one of the CF pins got bent. Is there an 800 number that I can call one of the companies that will fix it? If not, I may just tear it apart and try to fix it.

that supports wireless extensions. I want to rgulate the bit rate of my Ambicom WL1100C, but can\'t seem to find any kernels. Does anyone know where I can find a good one? I\'ve tried OZ, but thats still way to unstable currently.
