Sharp ROMs / Opera 7.55 Working On Cacko Rom?

« on: August 29, 2005, 09:54:30 pm »

I had downloaded this file named multimodal_arm.ipk from the IBM website which I am not sure whether it is the correct file. Then I unzipped this file twice (according to another forum) and found this file named opera_arm.ipk (which i tried to install but to no avail).

I hope you can direct me to the file that you had mentioned (multimodal_4.1.2_arm.ipk) so that I can try installing it to my zaurus.

You've got the right file (multimodal_arm.ipk), but you should rename it to include its version number, so that becomes multimodal_4.1.2_arm.ipk.

If the ipk then still doesn't work, you can indeed unzip the file and try renaming opera_arm.ipk to opera_7.55_arm.ipk. If you install this opera ipk instead of the multimodal ipk, you won't get the ViaVoice embedded voice recognition software.

Hi,

Thank you for all the replies.

I had tried renaming the files (both the multimodal_arm.ipk and opera_arm.ipk) and only the opera_7.55_arm.ipk can be installed.

After installation, I tried starting opera from the launcher but it does not work (it flashes to the Opera and back to the launcher again). So I tried starting from the terminal, and I saw the below messages:

#opera
Display size = 480x640
opera: Could not find "ini/standard_mouse.ini"
opera: Could not find "ini/standard_mouse.ini"
opera: vxmplugin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
QDir:: readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /home/root/.operasave
QDir:: readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /dev/shm/.operasave

QDir:: readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /usr/mnt.rom/card/.operasave
QDir:: readDirEntries: Cannot read the directory: /usr/mnt.rom/cf/.operasave

I am not sure what should I do with all these messages, anyone can help me with this?

Thanks in advance

Sharp ROMs / Opera 7.55 Working On Cacko Rom?

« on: August 22, 2005, 03:37:30 am »

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the replies.

I have a 3000 w/ Cacko and I got it to work by renaming "multimodal_4.1.2_arm.ipk" to "multimodal_4.1.2_arm.tar.gz" and extract the files. Poke around those files to find another IPK called opera_7.55_arm.ipk . install that and you should be good to go.

I had downloaded this file named multimodal_arm.ipk from the IBM website which I am not sure whether it is the correct file. Then I unzipped this file twice (according to another forum) and found this file named opera_arm.ipk (which i tried to install but to no avail).

I hope you can direct me to the file that you had mentioned (multimodal_4.1.2_arm.ipk) so that I can try installing it to my zaurus.


Thanks.

Sharp ROMs / Opera 7.55 Working On Cacko Rom?

« on: August 18, 2005, 05:01:43 am »

Hi everyone,

I am using a C750 with a Cacko 1.22 rom. I could not install the Opera 7.55 (from the IBM website) using both the GUI installer and through the terminal.

Did I missed out any additional libs or files that are required for this installation?

Anyone care to share their sucessful installation experience?? I had tried searching the forums but to no avail.


Thanks.

Singapore/Malaysia / Searching For Wifi Cf Card

« on: April 18, 2005, 09:27:47 pm »

Hi cfchew,

Can you specify what is your problem with the symbol card? I believe that the driver for the symbol is already in the ROM.

One thing to take note is that you have to key in specific SSID in order to connect to the network.


cheers

Sharp ROMs / Help: Creating Shortcuts On Launcher.

« on: March 30, 2005, 03:24:47 am »

Hi all,

I am currently using Cacko 1.22 Lite.  I am trying to find a way to put files that I need to use frequently onto the launcher so that I can use it directly when I need it instead of searching it using the file explorer.

I would greatly appreciate if anyone can advise me on how to create the shortcuts on the launcher.


Thanks.

China / Chinese Fonts On Z

« on: January 10, 2005, 03:08:53 am »

Hi xjqian,

Worked (easy ones)
1.Murphytalk
/home/zaurus/Settings/murphytalk.conf
2.CKeyboard
/opt/QtPalmtop/lib/fonts/taipei_xxx_50.t10.qpf
3.Opera
/home/zaurus/.opera/opera.ini at the end Font.name

this really helps me a lot, cos i am really new to linux and i do not know where the configuration settings are stored.

(and of course, those your have the option to choose fonts)
4.OpieReader
5.JustReader
6.Advanced TextEditor
7.Zbedic
8.QPZiDian
9.QPDF2 (although it says "menu font", it works well for some documents)

I had found that one can just set the font size to either 12,16,24 (those link to efonts) on Zbedic (without editing the .conf file)  and you can see the full set of chinese characters.

Haven't found solution yet
1. Desktop fonts

(those stock app, some are at high profile for my daily uses)
2.PIM (Calendar, Address, Todo, Email, default TextEditor{I use it to sync the notes in my outlook})
3 Hancom (Word, Sheet, Presenter)
4. ZEditor
5. Tree!Explorer Qt, Advanced file manager, stock file manager

I need your advice about the PIM and those programs that are capable of synching to the pc. Can the Sharp sync manager handle the chinese character during the transfer of information from the zaurus to the pc (using the Sharp sync manager)?

Honestly, I don't know any. I assume you don't want plain txt or html version, do you? There're sure ways to convert them to ebooks, but, you know...

I had tried converting some chinese html to ebooks, but to no success (due to my limited knowledge on ebooks conversion).

thank you for sharing your knowledge with me.


cheers

China / Chinese Fonts On Z

« on: January 09, 2005, 09:15:04 pm »

Hi xjqian,

thank you for your detailed reply.

that means i am left with two choices now:

1. to change the font sizes of each and every programs that i am going to use it for reading/writing chinese characters to those fonts sizes that are linked to the efonts. this is to retain the system's default helvetica fonts, am i correct to say that?

2.  to delete all the system's default  helvetica fonts and replace them with efonts, but this will not have bold characters.

i had chosen method number 1 as i would like to retain all the default font display. i am now off to configure each and every program that i am going to use to display chinese character.

pardon my ignorance, do you have any websites that have a good range of chinese ebooks? I cant seem to find to any.

thanks for your help.

cheers

China / Chinese Fonts On Z

« on: January 07, 2005, 11:46:45 pm »

Hi all,

i need your help.

i am facing this situation whereby the chinese fonts (using the efonts) displayed a lot of squares if i only link efonts to certain helvetica fonts.

but if i replace the whole default helvetica fonts with efont, i can have a more complete chinese fonts (which means that i t can display more chinese characters). the concern for me now is if i replace all the default helvetica fonts with efont, the font displayed on the all the programs becomes too small and there will be no bold character.

therefore, i would prefer to retain the current set of default helvetica font and only replace parts of the default helvetica font with efont. in doing so, the chinese characters displayed were not so complete, there were a lot of squares instead of chinese characters.

please advise if there is any way i can retain parts of the default helvetica font and yet display a more complete set of chinese character.

any help is appreciated and many thx in advance.

cheers
