Debian / New Desktop Environment - Lxde

« on: March 26, 2008, 04:16:20 pm »

I built the LXDE which consists of pcmanfm, lxsession, lxpanel, gpicview, and lxde.

http://lxde.sourceforge.net/

LXDE is a new project aimed to provide a new desktop environment which is lightweight and fast.  It's not designed to be powerful and bloated, but to be usable and slim enough, and keep the resource usage low.  Different from other desktop environments, we don't tightly integrate every component.  Instead, we tried to make all components independent, and each of them can be used independently with few dependencies.

The kernel is updated. Please check it in the first post.

Debian / Debian On C3xxx (merged Topics)

« on: March 23, 2008, 04:47:44 pm »

Video playback on the Z has yet to be solved, but it is a kernel issue (like bvdd support is lacking in the current 2.6.xx kernels).

I think pxa overlay in 2.6.x kernel functions as bvdd in 2.4.xx kernel. Am I wrong?

I found a link: http://projects.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/an...rch/001625.html
"No - the pxa driver does the same as the bvdd driver - *ALL* the bvdd driver
did was let you change the hardware resolution (ie get hardware 240x320), and
make use of the YV12 overlay.

-vo pxa -vm will do *both* these things."

Debian / Dualbooting/multiplebooting With Kexec!

« on: March 23, 2008, 11:06:38 am »

Another question about using the yonggun kernel (sharp bootloader version): since they are made to boot the rootfs off /dev/hda1, /dev/mmcblk0p1 or /dev/mmcblk0p2, does it still work if I repartition the internal disk back into the Sharp/Cacko fashion? The rootfs would then live in /dev/hdd3, can the kernel for hda1 boot up the system from there?

I think it is possible to boot /dev/hda3 if the option is properly given before building the kernel.

This is quite nice howto unlike mine.

Debian / Anki Under Eabi?

« on: February 28, 2008, 11:01:08 am »

Anki is a nice spaced repetition system (Leitner-style flashcard program) with a debian package.  If you are interested in learning the kanji, for example, you might like to check it out.

I'm trying it under debian arm (oabi) but am having problems with floats in the sqlite database, so I'm wondering if the changes to fpe under eabi might make a difference.  If anyone tries it out on their eabi system please let me know. Details of the bug can be found here, but the basic problem is that a deck copied from a debian/i386 system will have wacky random dates when opened on the z.

Thanks!

I tested it on debian eabi. Just I did "apt-get install anki". It works.

Debian / What Are The Dual Booting Possibilities Currently?

« on: February 28, 2008, 10:54:08 am »

Just add one small thing: I had converted the rootfs on the internal flash from ext3 to ext2 a whlie ago, and the boot error said "No filesystem could mount root, tried: ext3"  
Would this be relevant to the failure of my 3200 to boot?

Sorry for my late reply. As you mentioned, it seems like file system problem.

Theses days I am too busy to build new kernel and to write some documents. But mini howto is all I did, nothing else.

@2or0:

Just tried your 2.6.24 kernel in the sharp bootloader way (following http://yonggun.tistory.com/67 ) but the system fails to boot up:

 [ Invalid Attachment ]

This is what I did:
#1 Extract modules-2.6.24-yonggun.tar.gz to the Debian root partition (on internal CF)
#2 Flash pdaXrom beta3 to NAND (resizing root partition to 53MB; after a NAND Flash Restore because I was running Debian with uboot)
#3 Flash zImage.bin.hda1(for sharp bootloader from http://yonggun.tistory.com/66 ), using Angstrom's updater.sh  

Did I miss anything or do anything wrong here?

Now I cannot even flash back to pdaXrom beta3 as the "OK" flash menu does not work after #3.

Strange. I don't have any problem now except that sub-system was reinitialized (all program I installed disappeared)  when I reflashed new debian kernel.

Debian / A Clean, Fresh, Configured Eabi Rootfs Tarball

« on: February 21, 2008, 05:57:28 am »

Mercury (to replace the system menu; update-menus is okay but has rooms for improvement)
https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showto...st&p=174312

I recommend grun which is in the feed.

Actually gmrun is already included in the present rootfs tarball posted here and is part of the system menu (if you pick "Run"). The difference between gmrun and mercury is that the latter does not only launch programs but also features incremental searching and lists most frequently used programs on the top, which is pretty close to what QuickSilver does on Mac OS: http://noypeee.blogspot.com/2007/12/mercur...uicksilver.html

Not gmrun but grun.  

Description: gRun includes features such as a history, command completion from the history and from PATH, recognition of console mode applications and launching a terminal for them, file extension associations and a dual fork()/execvp() application launcher.

Debian / Unknown Hz Value!

« on: February 21, 2008, 02:09:56 am »

In the kernel configuration "CONFIG_HZ" was prolly not set at the time of the kernel compilation. Should be set to 100

Late

"CONFIG_HZ=100" is in configuration file.

2orO,

we also need the binderdev module if we want to be able to chroot Android under debian  would you compile it for us please? thanks in advance !

I tried to compile the binder modules but fail to build it.

- is there any kind of video acceleration, like bvdd under sharp rom? I find that scrolling through files or moving windows is not smooth.

mplayer has the option of "-vo pxa".

Thank you for your test on C3000. Also I attached my patch on my blog then you can build binderdev.
