Sharp ROMs / Cacko 1.22 Problems

« on: March 30, 2005, 10:06:33 pm »

xlibs_4.3.0-3_arm.ipk, returning
ipkg_get_install: Perhaps you need to run `ipkg update'?



Any ideas?

Sharp ROMs / Cacko 1.22 Problems

« on: March 29, 2005, 06:02:14 pm »

Hi, I use the Cacko 1.22 on my 860, and I have 2 problems. First is that the battery doesn't charge fully, or something and my zaurus shuts down automatically even after charging for a whole night. Second, I cannot install any packages and get the error "ipkg says something went wrong. Sorry".

Any help?

Sharp ROMs / Gaim

« on: March 28, 2005, 06:47:19 pm »

I am using the Cacko 1.22 Rom on my 860, and I tried installing gaim onto my zaurus, but I have all the files and ipk's for gaim to work, but when I try to install one, a thing pops up saying

ipkg says something went wrong. Sorry

When I installed gaim before, it worked like a charm, but now, once I switched to pdaXrom and went back to Cacko, it doesn't work. I have also checked my memory space in root by typing df in the terminal thingy, and I still have 50% space on root, and spaces in the other parts.

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom Installation

« on: March 27, 2005, 02:42:41 pm »

Suddenly, this morning, it worked! I still don't understand how the wifi is on and off, is it like while the card is in, it's having a connection and taking up my battery, and when I take it out it stops?

I don't like the dillo browser very much, so I will switch to Firefox, and things to personify my pdaXrom, so now I have to learn to install programs and stuff, so I'll do a search for that.

Again, thank you very much for all your help, in using my new, lovely ROM, pdaXrom!

etc. with the speed, noise, link and things.

Still not working... the wifi indicator shows that I have a connection, but does that also mean that it's eating away my battery? There seems to be no on, or off for network button...

There was another VLK from a different manufacturer that I saw before, perhaps I saw in this forum near November or something.

Well, I have tried the LAN+Wifi settings, and the Wifi monitor shows that I have connection, and I'm positive it knows it's a Linksys Wifi CF card, but dillo still doesn't work and I can't ping google or anything. I set the wifi settings to wireless, automatic IP and "any" essid because I have no settings, but it still doesn't work. I have Kathrin RC9 I think with a 860 if any of this information helps. My wifi card worked before with Cacko and the sharp Rom, so there is a low chance of problems in my card or my AP...

Sorry for taking your guys' time!

Thanks

Hmmmm it all works like a charm except for my Linksys WCF12 wireless card... I've searched for help, but if anyone is willing to show me a place, or how to start running my card, that would be great. It seems as though it recognizes my card because on the card button, when I press it it shows that I have a Linksys Wireless card in the cf slot. I also found the Wifi monitor thing and it says that there is connection, but somehow I can't go on the web with dillo, and is there any button on the bottom bar that I press and my card connects? (like in the Qtopia ones)?

Now it works! Thank you to plcq and pgas for helping me! I think the problem was something with the Cacko rom that was on my 860 before and tried to update to a pdaXrom or something, but it's all good cause now it works!

Thanks!

Yes, I did say yes to erase the user partition, was that the mistake?

No... I believe nothing is on there... There is only a couple of things in the system tools section, the usual setting and stuff, a thing in the internet place called PPP dealer, I don't think I need that, and Xterm in the other section.

Should I re-do pdaXrom? If so, can I get the right place to get the rom from, and I used the pdaXrom sites, download section (the mirror one) to do the one I did right now.

nope, no applications installed... and I probably have to install mozilla or some other web browser onto my CF card and install onto the zaurus and then start installing the other programs...

Now it's installed and working, but I've noticed there is no applications installed, and found out I have to install them manually, but seeing the countless application in the ipkg feed, I was wondering if anybody created a package of the main application for pdaXrom. If so, where would I find it? I could just start working and installing each program that I need one by one, but you know, I am not that patient

Thanks
