Site Suggestions, Requests, and Updates / Request: Add Openmoko/neo1973 Subforum

« on: July 26, 2007, 05:11:19 am »

d) not including OpenMoko here will be the beginning of the end of this forum which still appears to be dedicated to the Zaurus (although it has been renamed long time ago). Why not try to keep it alive?

This is more or less what some people in the openembedded community wants to see since the renaming, they  think that  "Open Embedded" creates confusion, and that the forum/association stole all the fame and name of the Open Embedded project.

SIMpad, Archos, iPaq and Nokia Tablets forums are already here

They are not very active though....and not having the support from the official vendor/developer will not help making the forum very successful.
 
Now I don't really care, and I don't think it will fragment anything to open a forum here.

General Discussion / I Mounted A 2 Gig Sd Card!

« on: July 19, 2007, 04:57:25 am »

If I recall correctly the pdaXrom module is just the official sharp module from the 3200, which luckily works just fine on the 3100 and 1000

SharpROM/pdaXrom beta3/pdaXii13 are all on 2.4.20 kernels for those models, so the module is compatible.

IIRC at some point sashz had ported a driver from somewhere  module to the 2.4 kernel, and had upgraded the 2.4.18 kernel to 2.4.20 for the 760 and co (circa beta 3)

So there was another  driver....and unfortunately quite buggy, at least on 760 ..and not working so well for card >1G IIRC.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Command Line Programming Editor?

« on: June 16, 2007, 06:42:56 am »

Maybe you know this but just in case:

note that vi != vim

There is a vi that comes from busybox, that doesn't do all the fancy
things vim does.

(emacs also runs in a terminal)

Software / Emacs For Zaurus

« on: June 07, 2007, 04:50:33 am »

I don't think there is something like that, maybe some extensions...
or use M-x ansi-term RET RET and the C-r from read-line ...

General Discussion / How I Think Linux Will Succeed

« on: June 05, 2007, 01:48:03 am »

For the most part, oesf folks are quite atypical linux users in that they don't do that much MS bashing. Instead, they focus on what's important: Discussing and developing solutions to fellow user problems. Some also dedicate their time, money and effort into writing How-Tos, Install Guides etc for everyone else out of good-will.

What the heck are you talking about?
How can you say that there are more articles about windows bashing than documentation about Linux??

Linux Applications / C++ Question

« on: May 11, 2007, 04:21:17 am »

I wonder if pyqt and python + gtk-server ( http://www.gtk-server.org/ )
suffer from the same startup overhead

Linux Applications / C++ Question

« on: May 11, 2007, 01:54:06 am »

Depending on you background, you might want to try an easier
language first, say python, ruby....

C++ is probably the most complicated language out there (even if qt makes things easier, and probably gtkmm also).

Don't worry about performances, even the Zaurus is perfectly able to run python applications, and if your application is good or is something people are missing, they will use it anyway.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / New Emacs 23 W/ Xft And Cjk Support!

« on: April 01, 2007, 12:14:08 pm »

I'm not sure if you are talking about the emacs-w3m main page, but there is an english version:
http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/index-en.html

I've just seen in #emacs@freenode.net for emacs with v>23:
try to put in a file w3m-e23.el:

 '(require 'w3m-e21) (provide 'w3m-e23)'
