X/Qt / Pdaxqtrom & Apps

It didn't help. Is there anyone with cacko rom that has installed and working pdaxqtrom 0.7.9?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=130658\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
Yep, it works for me (great work as usual, Meanie)  

How did you install pdaXqtrom ? As a "zaurus" user or as a "root" user ?
When I tried to install it with "zaurus" user, I had weird messages and a lot of applications didn't work...

General Discussion / Synchronizing Directories With Windows?
« on: May 04, 2006, 04:05:42 pm »

Hello,

after encountering problems when using Excel, Word and Textmaker files over Samba from a Windows XP computer, when the files are stored on an ext2-formatted SD card partition, I'm now considering another approach:

I'd like to synchronize one directory on the Windows XP box with one directory in that SD card ext2 file system over WLAN.

What approach is the simplest and safest?

I'd like to just "click" one icon on the Windows box OR on the Zaurus to do that.

Thanks a lot
daniel

P.S.: or is there a definitive solution for the file write / rename problems via WLAN / Samba on an ext2 partition of the Zaurus?
I'm always encountering error messages such as "cannot write to file" when in Word / Excel / TextMaker on the desktop, although I have adjusted the owner information in samba.conf so that the access rights should not be a problem anymore.

Maybe you could give a try to rsync or unison ?
But they are console tools...

Sharp ROMs / Location Of Pim Files?

Hi all,

I've been looking for where the zaurus is storing its addressbook and calendar data. I was told .../Applications/addressbook/addressbook.xml but there's no such file on my system.  In fact, "find" can't find any files containing the terms "address" and "xml" in a case insensitive search.  I've poked around in the directories I considered likely and really can't find them. I'll probably feel silly when someone tells me the answer, but... where are they?

I have:
Qtopia version 1.5.4
ROM version: CACkO Zaurus Qtopia ROM 1.23 1029311005
for and running on a SL-C3100.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'd like to know I can at least back up the relevent directories!

Hello,

try this drectory : /home/zaurus/Applications/dtm
You'll find some files like SLADRS.BOX and SLADRS.IDX.

Hope this helps.

oops, first question arises:

On a hard-drive-less Zaurus (C1000), is there a directory /home/zaurus/Documents?
If so, where does it point to?
If not, where should one put mail files on a C1000? How large is the home partition?

Thanks
daniel
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=124955\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
Yes, there's a /home/zaurus/Documents in the flash memory.
The home partition on my C1000 is 64 MB large.

Software / Mindmapping Software For Z Sl-c3000?
« on: March 22, 2006, 02:31:43 pm »
There's VYM but it runs on pdaXrom (see here : https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=16627&hl=vym)
And I don't know if it runs under cacko + x/qt.

Cxx0 Hardware / Another Microdrive Problem
« on: March 18, 2006, 08:24:57 am »
I just bought a Hitachi 4GB Microdrive from ebay with:

model-number: HMS360604D5CF00
P/N: 0A40270
bar code: B4XGN8HA 59B

When i put it into my c1000, I get an "anonymous memory" message.
It doesn't mount and fdisk say : "unable to open /dev/hda".
I just heard it spinning when I put it into my Archos Gmini 220 MP3 player.

Is there a way to make this work ?
Or is it just not compatible with Zaurus ?

Does anyone got it working ?
Thanks

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Qtopia For Pdaxrom?

Thanks for the command to take screenshots.

I didn't use the yopy patch, I took the qtopia sourcecode, made some modification to a few configuration files and scripts, so the build system thought that the destination was a x86 disribution. Than I compiled the qt/e libraries and utilities native on the zaurus and then I cross compiled qtopia on my desktop. On the zaurus, as the display device, I use a utility called qvfb, which is part of qt.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / !!! READ THIS !!!!
« on: January 29, 2006, 01:51:11 pm »
About suspend/resume issues :
- launch some stuff (aterm, package manager and xvkbd for example)
- suspend Z for more than 10 minutes
- On resume, nothing appears in "Active Tasks" => use ALT+TAB to make them reappear.
- On resume, impossible to switch to xvkbd => you must use a "kill -9" and then launch it again  

Thanks

Zaurus - pdaXrom / 1.1.0beta1 Is Out!
« on: January 25, 2006, 04:49:56 pm »
I answer to myself :
with hostap driver, be sure to choose "Operation Mode : Managed" in Network Settings.
And then, Linksys WCF12 wifi card works "Out of the box"  

With orinoco driver, it was "Operation Mode : Auto"

« on: January 25, 2006, 02:13:36 pm »
Thanks.

Can you tell me what's in your /etc/pcmcia/config, /etc/pcmcia/hermes.conf and /etc/pcmcia/hostap_cs.conf ?
Just the lines about Linksys WCF12 and "device" hostap (beginning of file), of course.  

Thank you
