Software / Opiereader 0.7j Bug?

« on: August 18, 2006, 12:49:41 am »

Because I can't run pdaxrom on my SL5000 I don't maintain opie-reader for pdaxrom. I do generally develop on my desktop using QT/X11 so the chances are good that opie-reader will compile for pdaxrom if I just give you my current source code but I can't guarantee it.

yup.. i just need the QT/X11 version of source code...

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Make Install Doesn't Work!

it would be better if u can make a .make file from the pdaxrom-builder..
It will be easier to be debug by other contributors...

well.. the fastest way to end this is to close this thread...

If you think OE fit u better than use OE.
If you think pdaxrom-builder fit u better than use pdaxrom-builder..
Why do you want to compare... which one is better..
We should work together and make programs to run smoothly (fitted nicely) in our Z, whether it is OZ or pdaxrom.

By the way, Sashz already open up for all who want to contribute..

i think pdaxrom-builder is much easier to hack than OE..

It dumps much more debug code during compilation..
It can create multiple build versions...

the new u-boot can speed up root or ketnel flashing...

maybe the builder need a bit of clean up

My development hard disk still have about 700 Mb free space..

i can increase the block 16000 and it produce all the files..
But u-boot cannot flash... C+D + power ...

I'm still testing...

Overall... most of the package compile without any problems..

it seems like i'm missing some parameters..

PTXCONF_BOOTDISK_SECT &
PTXCONF_BOOTDISK_HEAD)

I manage to get autoboot.sh, rootfs.img, kernel.img, u-boot.bin but i;m missing
emergenc.img and updater.pro
I use the original beta4 emergenc.img and updater.pro..
The U-boot flashes ok.. but when i try to boot it up.. by holding ON and plug in the power and unhold ON.. it doesn't run emergency boot..

Any idea...?
I check updater.pro but don't understand what the numbers about...

Thanx

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Progres With Beta5

« on: July 18, 2006, 01:36:26 pm »

i suggest all the package contributors to submit rules-ipk file for their package to release manager or qa manager for test  and to be added to the pdaxrom-builder svn repository..

i've been doing some testing to the pdaxrom-builder..
recently the svn for pdaxrom-builder seems to be updated by sashz..
So i guess he is still working on the new beta but not frequent as before..

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom 1.1.0beta 4 And New Bootloader

« on: May 11, 2006, 10:51:13 pm »

i've successfully flash pdaxrom 1.1.0 beta4..
Everything seems to work faster..
Suspend seems to work better...

There are bunch of error during startup.. but boot up with no problem..
I found one problem..
When i attach my usb ethernet adapter and assign an ip address, the whole screen (and the panel) will start to flicker.
Anyone have the same problem?

Sashz ... u're great...
