General Discussion / Ext2 On Microdrive

« on: January 21, 2005, 12:12:39 pm »

Hi All,

I have tried microdrive with vfat fs and found that it spins only if some i/o access was ordered.
What about ext2 (ext3) on microdrive - does it spins continually due to the journal updates?

Thanks in advance,

Hi All,

I have upgraded from Sharp ROM 2.38 to 3.13 and seems lost possibility to ftp on listening 4242 port.
Does Z has ftp server on port 4242 under Sharp 3.13 ROM?

TIA,

General Discussion / Z self reloaded and then rebooted, why?

« on: October 10, 2004, 11:07:43 am »

Hi All,

While transffering files from PC to Z (USB, ncftp) Z self reloaded and hangs on "Zaurus" logo. I have swithched from "Normal operation" to "Replace battery" but this didn't helps - the screen conituing to shine with Logo. Then I have removed the battery for about 15-20 sec and inserted it back. After I pressed "On" button Z starts to reboot  
To avoid such problems in future I just want to ask - why it happened? Do I really did something wrong or this is just Z misswork?

TIA,

Software / wwwoffle question

« on: September 25, 2004, 11:17:28 am »

Hi All,

I have installed wwwofle v2.5c-10 from ipk.
But it doesn't caching any pages - the indexes are empty.
The question is - how to force Opera 5 to works through the proxy? There are no menus. Does changing of  /home/root/Applications/Network/modules/Proxies.conf is enough?

Thanks,

Hi All,

I trying "zbochs" emulator compiled with SDL library by Tzer-jen Wei.
I like the way SDL represent the screen - full screen mode, rotated.
The only thing is bad - fonts on the screen are hard to read - they looks very tiny.
Is there a way to change the fonts, sizes?

Software / Does Sitescooper runs on Z?

« on: July 17, 2004, 02:09:08 am »

Anyone had luck with running of the Sitescooper on Zaurus?
It requires alot of additional modules (LWP, HTML::Parser, URI::URL, and MIME::Base64) which I'm not sure easy to find for arm.

Any experience?

Thanks,
