Software / Are there any Virtual Monitor Programs for Zaurus?

« on: June 08, 2004, 06:58:06 am »

Hi all,
I have seen one of my friend\'s- actually my Phd. Supervisor\'s (he is a really good man)- PDA(A fujitsu Pocket Loox).  There was a virtual monitor  program. He could change the software resolution just it is changed on regular PCs.  Is there a counter part of this program  in Zaurus World? Meanwhile I have seen keypebble but I think it it for remote connection to a PC.
Thanks....

Hi all,
I t may be too trivial but I could not find the update.sh for Zynergy ROM. The package I have downloaded from timekiller does not contain it?
How can I find it?
Thanks in advance

General Discussion / Encoding Video for Zaurus...

« on: May 21, 2004, 03:38:02 am »

Hi All,
I\'m not an expert on this field. But I will try to tell what I have done...
Fırst of all I have installed mplayer on my SL5600 and struggled with user rights. In the terminal I have become root by \"su\" then went to the mnt/cf/vıdeo directory.
mplayer -quiet  \"-framedrop or -hardframedrop\"  shrek.avi resulted a decent view of frafman of shrek2. Some little A-V sync problem happens. but not much...
For encoding I have used virtualdub which is free. you should install the codecs before. And I think video-fullprocess-compression should be selected for video compression from menu and  audio-fullprocess-compression.
I advise to change brightness (increase) from video-filter menu a little bit more....

Software / PDF,DIVX,HTML Mainly resolution, Fluorescent Lamb

« on: May 10, 2004, 07:01:31 am »

Hi all,
I have receive my new friend SL-5600 on last friday.  It was marvalleous to handle such a thing in your hands. I hope every other geek can feel something similar or better,  by having a Zaurus...  
I have had 3 major reasons to buy a handheld:
1- Organise data. Matches very good,
2- Read some documents and watch  divx,
3- Refresh my Unix/Linux knowledge and programmming.

I have downloaded qpdf2, and mediaplayer0.95/mediaplayer shell, video lan client.
Firstly I could not open videos which are downloaded with  divx 5.11, divx 4.0 and xvid codec whose resolution was 160x120. I have read several ex-posts but could not figure out the problem.

Can you advise on resolution, codec, and program combinations?

Secondly,
I have ınstalled QPDF2  and tried to read \"normal\" pdf. \"normal\" PC-readable pdfs. They are well opened bu t esolution/font size is unfortunately not very satisfactory/readable although the program seems usable.

Should I do a preprosessing on PDF documents?

Thirdly same problem occur on HTML files with OPERA.  So same question on the second item exist.

I use Sharp ROM v1.32 and think to try all the ROMs OZ/Zynergy/Cacko/pdaXrom. Before that I think to be familiar with Sharp ROM. I have downloaded abot 3-4 GB data from Net with webspiders and seems I  need plenty of time to play with my new poddle...

By the way is there two fluorescent lambs for frontlid  LCD or just one at left in SL-5600 models.

Thanks  ZUG  community whom I am proud of  being a member of it...
