Zaurus - pdaXrom / Gimp Problems - Rc 9.1

« on: May 17, 2005, 07:46:46 am »

did you install gimp from this feed :

http://212.10.30.205/rc10/Zaurus-7x0-860/feed/ ?

Hi,

Yes, I installed it from that feed (actually from the mirror on zaurusspy). And then I've also tried installing Gimp from the rc9.1 and the current feeds, but with the same result.

I've found that if I use the 'edit in the gimp' option in GQView then gimp will open files without problems. It's only when I try to use the Open option in the Gimp file menu that it segfaults.
I don't know if that helps to narrow down what the problem might be.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Gimp Problems - Rc 9.1

« on: May 17, 2005, 05:08:21 am »

I'm getting the same problem with a fresh install of Kathrin RC10 on my C760. Gimp starts but as soon as I click on Open in the file menu it segfaults.

Anybody have any ideas?

Software / Xqt and physical geometry

« on: June 08, 2004, 03:38:32 am »

I\'m running Xqt 0.0.9 with Cacko rom 1.19 and I have the same problem - maybe this is why I can\'t get any gtk2 apps to run?

EDIT: Oops, forgot - on a C-760

And here is TuxCards for Qt3:

Zautrix, many many thanks. You\'ve just made my Zaurus about 50% more useful!

Software / Useful Qt programs for SL760?

I will make some ipks in the next one or two week, that all of you can use these progs.

The TuxCards pogram is really a very useful App for a PDA!

Zautrix, you are fast becoming my personal hero!  

TuxCards is very useful, and I miss having it a lot. I had it working under Cacko X11, but since I went back to Cacko Qtopia I\'ve been unable to get it to run properly under Xqt (all the fonts are huge and it runs about four times large than the screen).

Can I put in a vote for Lyx as well?

A useful QT program(for me at least) would be Tuxcards (www.tuxcards.de), which is a QT-based outliner and notebook.

Can the QT323 lib be installed to an SD card?

And Zautrix, a million thanks for all the efforts you\'re putting in to programs for the 760!

X/Qt / Xqt

« on: March 13, 2004, 05:26:46 am »

I\'m using Xqt with my C760 and the cacko 1.19 rom, and it works perfectly with gtk1.2 applications (including the new Dillo 0.8 ipk from the pdax feed). What I haven\'t managed yet is to get any gtk2 apps working. I\'ve copied across gtk2, pango, atk, and gnome libraries from my old cacko X11 installation, and I can get abiword, gnumeric, gqview, and sodipodi to almost run - they draw their windows on the screen and then crash. When starting they give a gdk warning saying \"The X server advertises that RENDER support is present but fails to supply the necessary pixmap support. In other words it is buggy\". When they crash they give an X windows system error, either BadValue or RenderBadPicture.
I think that the problem may be related to Pango, because if I temporarily delete the /usr/lib/pango folder that contains the different pango modules then gqview will sort of run; the window comes up with a tool bar and the gqview splash image which can be zoomed, but there is no text in the menus and the window geometry is strange.
Now I\'m stuck. Can anybody suggest anything? Could the problem be in a configuration file for pango or gdk?

If I could get abiword and gnumeric to run, then I would have found in Xqt+Cacko qtopia the perfect solution for my zaurus. Hancom sheet and word are too lightweight for my needs, but I gave up on the X11 rom because I need PIM functionality, and KO/Pi is perfect  for this.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Fluxbox on X11 Feed

« on: December 24, 2003, 11:28:15 am »

I\'ve only been able to get qPackager to work from a local feed on /mnt/cf/feed if I first create an index from www.cacko.biz/feed. If after flashing the rom I change /etc/ipkg.conf to point to /mnt/cf/feed, then qPackager doesn\'t find anything. If I start by getting the list from cacko.biz, and *then* change /etc/ipkg.conf to point to the local feed it finds all the ipk\'s on the compact flash and updates the list. I haven\'t work out why yet, but this method works for me.
