6000 - Tosa / Am I Going Crazy?

« on: September 27, 2006, 05:39:04 pm »

Am I going crazy?  

Does anyone on the forum IntelliSync their SL-6000 to Outlook 2003 on Windows XP?  I'm sure I had this working a year back on an older machine.  I can telnet and VNC to the SL-6000 so I think that my drivers are installed properly.  File Transfer is intermittent, Backup seems to work OK.  

When I try to sync, I get an inital message to "Put Zaurus in the docking station".  Once I click "OK", it dies.  

In my case, Outlook is connected to the Exchange server over HTTPS.  Could that be the difference?

Thanks for any help!

6000 - Tosa / Touch Screen Problem

« on: May 11, 2006, 11:53:32 am »

Folks,

For some reason, the screen on my SL-6000 is not responding to input.  I baby this thing, using both a screen protector & Piel Frama case.  Any suggestions?  Am I cooked?

Thanks,
Doug

Software / Qpdf2 Version 2.3.0

« on: March 31, 2006, 11:25:18 am »

Hi,

It looks like a new version of qpdf2 was posted on SourceForge in December here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/qpdf2/

It is available as a tarball, not in ipk format like the last release.  Has anyone tried it out yet?  The old version is kind of unreliable with large .pdf files.

Cheers,
Doug

General Discussion / Application Misbehavior

« on: February 15, 2006, 12:05:46 am »

OK,

So you're working with an app in Qtopia and it suddenly locks the UI.  What do you do?  If I'm working on good old SUSE I just Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and I'm at the command line.  Now where is that rouge app ...

How do people deal with this when working on a Zaurus?  I find Opera locks the UI from time to time, but other apps have as well.

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks,
Doug

Software / Ldap Browser?

Hi,

Has anyone ever come across a graphical LDAP browser for the Z?  If not I'm thinking of writing one in Java or Qt.  

Thanks,

6000 - Tosa / Mp3 Players

« on: January 31, 2006, 12:56:33 pm »

Folks,

What do you use for an MP3 player on your 6000?  Now that we have 1Gb+ SD cards I'd really like to be able to save and restore playlists.  Even sorting by Artist would be nice.  What does everyone use?  I tried that Sharp musicplayer app and it was very unstable on the 6000.  Looking at tkcPlayer - does anyone use it?

Cheers,
Doug

6000 - Tosa / Sl-6000 Installation Cd

« on: December 06, 2005, 12:19:36 pm »

Hi,

Is it possible for someone to load the SL-6000 installation software to the ZUG Download Area?  Or, is there anywhere you can download them outside of the ZUG?  Sharp's website only has the SL-5500 drivers available.  I really need the drivers and seem to have misplaced the media.

Thanks!

6000 - Tosa / "record" Key

« on: December 20, 2004, 02:32:56 pm »

Hi there,

Does your record key work?  I've tried enabling it using both the "Application Key" and "Voice Recorder" applications.  Is there anything else you need to do?  Pressing the key should just start "Voice Recorder" and put it in record mode right?

Thanks,
Doug

6000 - Tosa / Conversion From Sl-5500

« on: December 07, 2004, 11:41:09 am »

Hi there,

Just ordered the SL-6000 and am currently a SL-5500 owner.  Can someone direct me to a conversion procedure, allowing me to keep my SL-5500 address book and calendar data?  

Would I just install the Zaurus Desktop and save/restore using it?

Thanks,
Doug

Software / Can Sharp PIM Apps be Modified

« on: September 23, 2004, 09:09:28 am »

Hi,

I was wondering if the source for Sharp's PIM apps is available.  I'd like to create an option in the To-Do application that will display *only* the current day's outstanding tasks.  Should be pretty easy right?  Having this feature would make the device much more similar to paper day planning systems.  Plus, looking at that long list of outstanding tasks every day can be quite depressing!

Does anyone know?  I'm a 5500 user so Ko/Pi is probably not an option for me due to the size of my screen.  I tried the kompany's To-Do app and hated it.

Thanks,
Doug

I haven\'t seen a SL-6000 pic that shows the screen shield.  Could anyone supply one?  Is it differenct from the SL-5500/SL-5600?

Software / Terminal App: 3.10 ROM

« on: March 09, 2004, 01:43:27 pm »

Hi,

Has anyone tried replacing the terminal app that comes with the 3.10 ROM?  Which one do you use?  

I\'m sure that the terminal app I used on the 2.38 rom allowed you to change the background colour.  I just love working green on black background.

Thanks,
Doug

Accessories / SL-5500 Docking Station

« on: February 23, 2004, 11:52:25 am »

Hi,

Does anyone know of a company that will sell and ship a docking station to Canada?  I\'ve checked Amazon, Mobile Planet (won\'t ship) and eBay (none available).

Thanks,
Doug
