Software / Kde-pim/pi 2.1.0 Available!

« on: June 29, 2005, 05:44:04 am »

Have you tried a vCard export instead?

From what I understand, the vcard export would create 1 vcf file with all my contacts.
And Outlook cannot read it unless I buy an external addon, which I would avoid if possible, given that it is a One time process.

Otherwise I have to manually create more than 200 single Vcards.
Maybe it is the only solution, but is not very "confortable"

Software / Kde-pim/pi 2.1.0 Available!

« on: June 27, 2005, 03:48:00 am »

I have tried to import my Ka/Pi on a Z6000L contacts back to Outlook 2003, but for some reasons All of them failed.
I tried the Ka/Pi-DTM-OL approach, but while I could sync correctly between Ka/(Py and the Sharp contacts, when I tried to sync with OL, this always failed in the middle of the process, saying something about a wrong or missinig API, and I tried on different PCs and fresh intsalls of OL.

So I tried with the CSV export, but for some reasons neither Outlook nor OL express accept the CSV file created by KaPi.
While I do not know if there is a solution to the DTM sync issue, though I start to think tha there must be something wron in my vcard file, is there maybe the hope that the CSV export filter issue could be solved?

Thank you very much,
regards,
Adalberto

PS: Any news on the KDE/Pim to OL sync? I see that there is a not active voice ion the Windows version, but no other news on it.

X/Qt / Pocketdebian With Xqt Or Keypeeble?

« on: May 16, 2005, 12:21:49 pm »

Is there a workaround for the cf/suspend/eject issue?

I have debian on a 1 gig sd, i don' run into this, and haven't had a need to fix it.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=80028\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Good for you!  

Let's hope then that the 2.6 kernel will arrive soon as it solves this "suspend/resume" issue!

Thanks for the info!

X/Qt / Pocketdebian With Xqt Or Keypeeble?

« on: May 16, 2005, 11:11:32 am »

very quickly-- more as it comes to me.

I can d0 16 bit.  just turn off the request 8-bit session. I wasn't sure if it was slower or did screen refresh differently. xqt was not too speedy redrawing windows either, if I recall correctly
ouput res can be changed by changing the scaling factor in keypebble and changingh the res in XF86 conf in debian.

I know nothing about the clock issue

you could remove the instll dir.  I don't because I reflash a lot

Sounds like you like it less than I do.

btw it will speed uop if you turn off the encoding..I think it defaults to copyrec..uncheck that box you will see a marked improvement
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=80014\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Yes, removing the request 8bit session and the copyrec encoding improves the situation, still slower than Xqt but manageable.  woudl ahve said tat encoding would have improved speed, but rethinking on tht I suppose that encoding just amkes packet smaller to send through a network, but asks more power to de-encode them.
 

My problem is now the eject of the CF card on suspend.
I have vnc starting at reboot, but when I suspend and the CF is ejectd, the session is closed, and this happens almost every time I suspend.
Is there a workaround for this?
What is the command to start the chrooted env for the VNC connection?

X/Qt / Pocketdebian With Xqt Or Keypeeble?

« on: May 16, 2005, 09:49:09 am »

Ok, Imanaged to access pocketdebian via Opie Keypeeble.
Some consideration:
1) It is noticeably way slower than XQT, especially on screen refresh and it runs at 8 bit only
2) If the CF card where I have the chrooted env is ejected and reinserted after suspend while the fbvc is running, the system tends to freeze
3) It is true that with vnc you can rotate "on the fly", ut with Xqt you can rotate before starting it and everythign would be fine (not the same but not so bad either...)
4)As pointed out in another thread, the on screen keyboard is not working (but it odes not work for me in XQT either)

I have a couple of questions too:
1) How can I change the output resolution?
2) in the vnc env. the clock in pocket debian is aligned with the one in  QTOPIA, while this is not ture in XQT (it is always 2 hrs before my ETC settings, no matter if I ahve it set to UTC or ETC time), do you know how to solve this?
3) Does it make sense to delete the INSTALL.D dir after the vnc env is set up?

Thank you,

regards,
Adalberto

Guylhem Rom / On Keyboard

« on: May 16, 2005, 07:38:09 am »

About the keyboard issue in Guylhem rom, there are 2 things that, as a non programmer, I do not understand:

1) If we use the modified table, then we can only use external keyboards but the internal one will be screwed up? Or I will be ale to use the internal keyboard with its special keys with the new table from Guylhem?
2) Why not write a driver for the keyborad applet, as done in IRK for the usb keyboards? I understand that some keys are hardcoded, but the IRK should have overcome this somehow as it works with external, non Zaurus specific keyboards.

In case, would it at least be possible to write a script taht changes the keyboard tables when using an USB keyboard or the internal/IR one?

Regards,

Adalberto

X/Qt / Pocketdebian With Xqt Or Keypeeble?

Right now, I'm happier with Keypebble.   dl opie-keypebble 1.0  (you will also need opie libs (they can be had from cacko, and I think the zaurus feed-- you can run wellenreiter with these libs, too) give it a shot and let me know what you think?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=79778\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Thanks for the info!

Apparently I had some corruption issues on my CF and I am going to reinstall pocketdebian.

I suppose that in order to use the vnc approach I have to do things differently than for XQT (following Klaus instruction, right?)

Are VNC and XQT usable on the same chrooted env (ie, entering from one or the other) to test?

BTW I have keypeeble 1.0 and I usually install it without problems on the Sharp ROM

X/Qt / Pocketdebian With Xqt Or Keypeeble?

« on: May 14, 2005, 09:52:29 am »

ADF,
I have seen you are now using pocketdebian with keypeeble (VNC).

I am still using the Xqt solution, but I would be really interested in knowing your experience.
What are, in your opinion the pros and cons of the 2 solutions?

Is it only a matter of hving less packet installed with the VNC approach?

Thanks,
Ciao,

X/Qt / Out Of Space In Pocketdebian/xqt?

« on: May 13, 2005, 11:38:49 am »

Hi,
Today I run in a weird issue.

I was in Pocketdebian (via XQT) and was trying to upgrade my system when, in the middle of the new package download, i received:

Code: [Select]

Err http://ftp.debian.org testing main bzip2 1.0.2-6
Error writing to output file - write (28 No space left on device [IP: 208.185.25.35 80]
Err http://ftp.debian.org testing main bzip2 1.0.2-6
Bad header line [IP: 208.185.25.35 80]
I checked the available space on my CF and I had around 80MB free (the upgrade needed only 14Mb of new files).
Someone has an idea what is happening?

Thank you,
regards,

Adalberto

Guylhem Rom / Found Reason For "wait 30 Sec" Remaining Forever

« on: April 17, 2005, 02:58:23 pm »

could be done. I like modules to recompile them separately and test stuff in a working kernel, but it could be good. Now the question is which modules will make it
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=75434\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Please add at least the BT modules for the CF cards! :-)

General Discussion / Socket Bt Module

« on: April 11, 2005, 05:12:49 am »

Hi,

I am trying to make my socket BT (rev F) card work with the fast kernel from Guylhem, and was looking for the right kernel module to load.
Could someone tell me which one should I use?

Is maybe the BT driver ipk from tumnus containing the kernel module too?

Thanks for the info.

X/Qt / Debian with Xqt

« on: April 06, 2005, 03:55:18 am »

YongYan, I do not know if the situation on the 3000 is the same as on the 6k, but I cannot connet to X from Root.

I have to start it as zaurus user in order to have Xqt and the Pocketworkstation start.
Did you try to start it as normal user?

Guylhem Rom / fast 6000 kernel, along with special libsdl

« on: April 04, 2005, 04:13:03 am »

Adf,
I just downloaded your latest kernel and modules, but before I start installing, I have a couple of questions, just to be sure I do not screw up everything! :-)

The modules installation should be done following Guyhlem Howto I suppose, but in this case, shouldn't we need updated modules links in home too? Or do we not?

Your modules files is 6 mb big, is there enough space for it with the deletion of the whole Opera 6.2?

Any other points of attention?

I am eager to test it and see if the BT card is working!

Thank you,
Adalberto

X/Qt / What Do You Run Under X/qt

« on: March 30, 2005, 03:04:49 am »

Edit: I realized you use the pocket debian installation. So I will see if can use gnumeric without debian but only with XQT.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=72641\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

It should be possible to run Gnumeric directly in X/Qt.
But be careful with dependancies!
Maybe someone else tried it and could be more helpful.

Good luck,
Adalberto
