Accessories / Ea-bl06 Battery In The Uk?

« on: January 22, 2007, 11:04:44 am »

The title says it all.
Where can I buy a EA-BL06 battery in the UK?

I found a site that sells the BL08, but I am guessing that it does not fit in the Zaurus SL-5500.

Thank you for any pointers!

Linux Issues / Suse 10.0 & Zaurus Sl-5500

« on: November 04, 2005, 07:12:19 am »

Hi,
I upgraded to SuSE 10.0 from 9.2 and I do not seem to be able to get the usbnet loaded automatically.

I can do:
# modprobe usbnet
# ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.201 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

and ping/connect to the zaurus (runing OZ 3.5.1)

# ifconfig -a
shows correctly the usb0 (I also have the ifcfg-usb0 file in /etc/sysconfig/network
and the file ifroute-usb0 in the same directory.
This alone used to be enough in SuSE 9.2 to get connected each time, but know I have to do the modprobe as above after rebooting.
Is there a way to make this stick so the connection can be achieve after rebooting?
Do I have to add some script somewhere for this?

Many thanks in advance.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Wish list

« on: September 28, 2004, 12:23:05 pm »

I really like 3.5.1, it is a great improvement (there is a noticeable increase in speed compared to 3.3.5) so congratulations to all the people involved.

I am missing a few applications, so perhaps some of you may have some suggestions.

Jeod: I tried to install the file. This worked OK in 3.3.5 but I do not seem to be able to make it work in 3.5.1.
Any ideas? Or is there any other Java VM that works in 3.5.1?

Mbox-reader: This does not seem to load either.
I asked the author, but he is using the Sharp rom. How possible is to include this in a future release of OZ?

Other applications that I tried and did not work:
opie-mediaplayer1
opie-mediaplayer2
aliens
opie-qasteroids

Regards,

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / 3.5.1 problems

« on: September 24, 2004, 01:20:32 pm »

Hi,
I flashed with 3.5.1 wihtout any problems.
I can connect from SuSE 9.1 to the Z using Qtopia, but I cannot get any programs installed.
I have http://openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.1/feed/ in the settings of Qtopia Desktop as a Package feed, but no new programmes are shown.

I desperately need to install Korganizer or KOPI, but I haven't got a clue on how to do it. I would be most grateful for any help

The packages copied (using scp) to the cf card, do not seem to be detected by the Package Manager. Any clues?

Thanks,

-G-
