User Request for Applications / Arduino On The Z
« on: August 09, 2007, 03:50:01 pm »
Has anyone tried compiling the Arduino IDE for the Zaurus (specifically the CX000 series) for QT?  I might give it a try as I would prefer to do the programming/testing on the road for a couple of projects I have in mind.

Software / Mplayer Codecs
« on: July 31, 2007, 04:25:26 pm »
Does anyone know where the codecs.conf or the codecs are stored for mplayer-bvdd-iwmmxt are stored on the zaurus after installation?  Is the codecs.conf 'hardcoded' into the mplayer binary or is the file somewhere, not in the usual spots?

Thanks

After getting XFCE4 and Rox up and running my Fn and . stopped working.  Can someone post their kernel.map and akita.xmodmap files so I can make sure mine are ok?

Thanks

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Xfce4 Won't Load
« on: June 20, 2006, 12:15:00 pm »
I've checked the forums, and followed the numerous guides on how to install XFCE4.
Xfce4 starts up only once, and that's the first time after a clean install of pdaXrom beta3 and xfce4-4.2.2, but when I exit it (saved the session of course) and try to start Xfce4 again I get the following error:

Quote
> startxfce4
Loading /etc/sysconfig/keyboard/kernel.map


Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
XIO:  fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
        after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

I've looked for the 'fixed' font and can't find it in anywhere on my Z (c3100) but I can't understand why it would load XFCE4 the first time.

Oh yeah and Matchbox works without a problem.

Thanks

Can anyone help me with Apache/PHP not connecting to mysql?  I have the following installed:
apache2-php5-mysqlclient - from feed
mysql-3.23.49-8.7              - from Z Software Index
Both are running as can be seen from the following screens:

[img]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b190/boardboyd/sc_09.png\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /]
[img]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b190/boardboyd/sc_09_16.png\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /]

And the right mysql login and password are passed.  I had somehting very similar to this setup running on my 5500 on cacko 1.22but since I moved to my 3100 with cacko 1.23 full I can't connect to mysql fromn the webpages I made.

From the error msgs in the pics above php is not installed or not running (I don't know how to tell).

I've also tried the old apache-1.32/php package (or whatever the latest was prior to the apache2 package) and it does the samething. Maybe it's a permissions thing, but I don't know how to tell?

Hardware Mods / Z Sl5500 Serial To Serial Devices
« on: January 12, 2006, 05:56:46 pm »
Does anyone have any 5500 serial experience.  I do a lot of field work for my current job, and am required to do temp readings and use equip that has a serial interface and would like to have at least logging capailities on my Z.  I was thinking of modding my cradle to be used as the cradle and have a serial port come out where I can plug serial devices into.  Any thoughts?

Sharp ROMs / Ko/pi And Rotate Sl5500
« on: June 21, 2005, 11:57:48 am »
I'm unable to get KO/Pi or KA/Pi to open when I rotate my screen on my 5500.  I'm using SharpROM 3.13, and the qt-embedded-rotate-fix and rotate from Cacko, and using KO/Pi 2.1.4.  If I try in qKonsole I get the following error msg:
Quote
kopi: error while loading shared libraries: libmicrokdepim.so.2: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory

It works fine in portrait, is it just because the microkde libs don't support landscape on the 5500?

Accessories / New Keyboard For Irk
« on: June 07, 2005, 02:08:03 pm »
I have a Systech/Citipack/Sakar folding IRDA keyboard.  I had it for my Clie SJ-22.  I would now like to get it to work with my 5500 (Sharp 3.13).  I've tried every IRK version under the sun, and then some and the 0.11.0 with Pocketop comes the closest to working.  WHen I press a key on the keyboard and the 5500 is in a text editor random characters come up, it's totally random and sometime they repeat until i press another key or even the same key.
Can anyone help to get this to work?
Here's the link for the product,
I have a copy of the PalmOS driver as well as a dump file(attached) [ Invalid Attachment ]  from pdbdec.

Sharp ROMs / Sharp 3.13 Sync With Anything?
« on: May 16, 2005, 11:34:14 pm »
I have a SL5500 and recently went back to Sharp 3.13, and now I can't sync with anything (Intellisync, QtDesktop, Multisync), I was able to sync when I have OZ3.5.2 and Opie1.2.  All I get from Intellisync/Multisync is an error that it can't make connection, on the Z side I get an error "Communication Aborted".  
I moved from Cacko/Hybrid/Opie so that I could sync and run HancomSheet, has anyone encountered this?

Thanks
