Hmmm, I used root as login, and then there comes this thing like "tty1" and then below, there is a # sign and I think it's telling me to type in a command... is there anything that I have to do?

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom Installation

« on: March 25, 2005, 02:00:54 pm »

Hello,

I have just finished installing pdaXrom on my 860, and I think it went fine except when I rebooted, the "terminal" kind of thing that comes up at the starting shows that I need a login and a password... Is there anything that is supposed to go in there? I made a password thing for my zaurus when I had cacko before, but it seems to not work that way.

Any quick help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks! Now I have a better understanding of these ROMs... I am going to try pdaXrom, and there is a low chance of me getting a success in it, but from what they've said, it sounds like it will be worth a try!

Hello everyone!

It's good to be back, haven't been on for a while, so I'll take my time to get used to this forum once again, but right off the bat, I have a question for the people who have time to explain things to me.  

I've always used Sharp ROMS and Sharp based ROMS with my C860, but Cacko and the original roms aren't that exciting to me. Perhaps, I thought, maybe there are other roms out there that might be the one for me.

I only know a few roms, including Original rom, Cacko, PDAX something, and I don't know much else. Except for the Cacko and Original rom,I know nearly nothing about them sadly, so if anyone is kind enough to take their time to tell me a brief explanation of the roms out there, I'd be very thankful!

Oh my gosh! I turned on my zaurus SL-C860 yesterday and I haven't used it for about a month and I couldn't do Wi-Fi with my Linksys WCF12 CF Wireless Card! The card's LED doesn't even flicker... could it be the Access Points problem? Or could it be the card...?      OR THE ZAURUS???  

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated

General Discussion / Cf Card Size?

« on: November 28, 2004, 05:35:29 pm »

Well as everyone says... I think 128 would be good but 256 and 512 doesn't have a large price differ so I guess it'd be good for 256 or 512 since CF's dropped so much in price and the SD are working their way down too a bit. So ya the two selections are my choice. 256 is a  LOT of space for photos on a normal camera and about 20 songs. For me the 256 is far enough usually.

Security and Networking / Remote Desktop?

« on: November 23, 2004, 08:00:51 pm »

Finally I got the qtrdesktop going. But alas they both have bad quality on colour... qtrdesktop is very sharp and faster than keypebble and I also don't like the way keypebble controls the computer so ya I'm sticking with qtrdesktop.

BUT they both have poor colours I think they're 8-bit. Is there any way of changing qtrdesktop to make it at least 16 bit? the graphics are usable but still not good at all................ HELP! Thanks!

Rikiya  P.S. Very thankful to everyone that has helped me over the nearly 8 months of zaurusing.

Sorry I took so long to respond to your guys' comments which really helped me and I got VNC and keypebble going but the colour and graphics are really ugly and I can't see pictures well and videos... Is there any way to get better colour or should I use a different program? If qtrdesktop has good graphics then I'm gonna be working hard trying to figure out how to get it going but is there any  way?

I didn't know anything about terminals and etc. but thanks to lardman's suggestion I tried and typed "gaim" on terminal and viola this thing came out and said that there wasn't this file and I installed it and again it said another file so i installed it and repeated like 4 times and there you go it worked! YAY! Finally I can do IMMMMMMMM! Was it because I use the original ROM with japanese ?(I need to be able to type japanese) ?

Thanks everyone for the help!

P.S. Thanks to the person who suggested Opera! It worked! and also the person who suggested to change the browser mablobber in netfront to make it work! it worked great! thank you thank you!
