Zaurus - pdaXrom / Ooo!
« on: March 04, 2006, 05:29:42 pm »
Warning - adventurous only
Use at your own risk. Backup all your stuff. Be prepared for the worst - a total reinstall.

OK, I've got the install down to 18M.
Don't expect much, this is just a test.

I've been using it for a few days now and it seems stable and responsive.
Even though middle and right click don't work, I know why, it is still very usable.

I might have forgotten to include, or mistakenly excluded needed parts.
I have yet to encounter them, but I hardly use much of the software available.
Likewise, much of what is included is probably not needed.

NOTE: '-' is changed to '_' on upload
make sure your packages are named properly before you install.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Gpm For Pdaxrom

I used this patch to add ts support to gpm, too bad it's only left button though.

The wheel is just buttons, but X on pdaXrom doesn't support those buttons without recompiling...

Does the mouse option to Xfbdev not work?

Accessories / Sd To Cf Adapter. Anyone Use These?
« on: March 01, 2006, 11:48:37 am »
I have a CF-SD adapter from Mittoni, see link in sig.
The don't sell the one I have anymore.
The SD card sticks out of it, and it is bigger than a CF card.
Despite it's large size, it does work well.
I have never had any problems with it.

I can't comment on it's use with Secure Digital protection scheme,
I have never tried.

1. How quick xorg in ordinary operations compared to original xfree?
ordinary operations like what?
opaque drag and resize is a little choppy.
   mrxvt, gvim, xfe, xpdf, conky, gqview, ddd all seem to run similar to xfree.
   xpilot is a little slow to start, but runs the same.
   xscorch seems the same,  gtkboard too.

It is hard to tell since I don't have 2 Zaurus machines to try side by side.
I need to do some tests with both to tell, and that might be a while yet.

I still havn't got middle and right mouse buttons recognized as set in inputconfig.py
Although I havn't actually worked on it yet.

2. What takes so much in your xorg build (37M)? libs, fonts?
I've managed to get it down to 30M, but I still have more to do.

/
4.6M    etc/
25M     usr/

/usr/X11R6
5.6M    bin/
20M     lib/

/usr/X11R6/lib
9.0M    .
2.0M    X11
9.0M    modules

libOSMesa is the big lib (2.1M)
I still have a few multi versions I need to track and eliminate

/usr/X11R6/lib/modules
2.6M    .
336K    fonts
425K    input
16K      linux
2.4M    drivers
140K    multimedia
3.2M    extensions

drivers should probably go and the big extension is GLcore (2.7M).
Much of input could also go.

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11
2.0M    .
60K     etc
12K     x11perfcomp
8.0K    fonts/misc
189K    fonts/util
4.0K    fonts/75dpi
4.0K    fonts/local
4.0K    fonts/100dpi
4.0K    fonts/cyrillic
213K    fonts
120K    xedit/lisp/progmodes
224K    xedit/lisp
224K    xedit
8.0K    getconfig
1.4M    config

this I need to look into more, I don't know if config is needed for anything other than imake.

/etc
4.5M    X11
40K     fonts/

/etc/X11
4.0K    Xsession.d
273K    app-defaults
4.0K    lbxproxy
4.0K    proxymngr
64K     rstart
4.0K    twm
156K    xdm
8.0K    xinit
2.9M    xkb
1.1M    xserver
4.0K    xsm

xkb could be trimmed, but I don't know yet.
xserver seems to contain printing locales and fonts I know nothing about.

What can be distributed separately from main package?
I'm not sure, but I would imagine quite a bit.

What is the minimal xorg size?
again, I don't know.
I think I need to build less of xorg.
I don't think I need some libs like:
libxrx, libxrxnest, libXinerama, libXevie, and the GL/Mesa libs.
I need to research it a bit.

3. What about RAM consumation compared to xfree?
Right now I can't compare it to xfree, since I don't have it installed.

at CLI before running X:
Mem: 36972K used, 24916K free, 0K shrd, 56K buff, 20552K cached
Load average: 2.16, 2.19, 2.15    (State: S=sleeping R=running, W=waiting)

doing nothing:

Load average: 2.43, 2.26, 2.17    (State: S=sleeping R=running, W=waiting)

4794 root     S            1112  4774  0.0     1.7     xcompmgr

drag opaque mrxvt:

These videos was shoot on zaurus??
I pointed a video camera at the Zaurus to capture the video.

Here is 2 more, zoomed out. With xcompmgr -c -f -r 2 -t 10 -l 10
Drag mrxvt
Open and close xfe menu
as you can see, opaque drag is a bit choppy.

Could xbindkeys be used for the scroll wheel on a mouse?

I do it on my desktop.
I don't see why not on Zaurus.
The wheel is just buttons.

xorg works!  
It still has a few quirks,
and it is way too big, ~37M

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Need Help Configuring & Compiling Sdl_gfx
« on: February 26, 2006, 04:21:36 pm »
Quote
firstly thanks to both of you
i will try the ipks first ( thx!   ) - i don't know what sdl_gfx provides and what of this is needed by lincity-ng - i guess i'll see if it works and if not try to find another way
thx
seb

edit:

@dtruchan: i didn't notice the "dev" at first, what exactly did you compile? i presume that the "test"-ipk is the compiled contents of the "test"-folder in the SDL_gfx tarball - but what is the "dev"-ipk? is it dome kind of "devel"-package? because configuring lincity-ng exits with

configure: error: please install SDL_gfx >= 2.0.13

or: does the "devel"-ipk contain the "right" package and could this error be related to the errors you were mentioning?
or: do i have to adjust something else besides running ldconfig after ipkg install of your "devel"-ipk?

thx ia
seb

I appended the -dev suffix to denote that it is a development version, has includes and unstripped libs, rather than just a runtime version, no includes and stripped libs.  

try and run:
Code: [Select]
export CFLAGS="-I/usr/include/SDL"before you run configure.

I had to do something similar to build the tests.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Need Help Configuring & Compiling Sdl_gfx
« on: February 26, 2006, 11:07:55 am »
The configure script allows you to specify the location of SDL.

I built this package last week for wormux, it segfaults on TestFonts and TestRotozoom.
I have not traced the problem yet, so I would say it's not working.
Here it is anyway, if you want it.

you will need to fix the package names before you install.
Code: [Select]
SDL_gfx_dev = SDL-gfx-dev
SDL_gfx_test = sdl-gfx-test- becomes _ when you upload.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / !!! READ THIS !!!!
« on: January 29, 2006, 04:13:30 pm »
After booting the zaurus, besides scrolling being borked by the boot logo, suspend and resume work fast and flawless from the command line.  If I launch X into matchbox, suspend and resume work flawlessly, but are slow.  Then dropping to command line, suspend from button doesn't work anymore.
 
After booting if I launch X into Fvwm, or other window managers, suspend works fine and fast, but on resume the zaurus is unresponsive and suspends again.  When I resume again, zaurus is again unresponsive and application text dissapears, then it suspends again.  On the third resume, zaurus is OK.

This happens on RC11, RC12 and Beta1

Turns out deps are different for arm. automake sucks.  
libXxf86vm isn't built with X since it's not needed.

Let me know if it works.  
I havn't tried yet.
