Cxx0 General discussions / Interested in 760, but some questions first.

« on: October 23, 2003, 07:17:02 pm »

what porting?  this is linux... if it\'s not an X app... just command line, there really shouldn\'t be a problem.  

I needed a static gnutar (to install zdebian, as the one on pocketworkstation had some dyn-lib (so) mismatch).  I hopped on the ipaq cluster (running familiar) ... wget gnutar, gzip | tar, configure, make, etc.  brought it over to the 760 and it ran just fine.

take a look at www.pocketworkstation.com for zdebian.  I have that on my 760 (m54.spy.org) -- that\'s pretty decent linux on the puppy.  

I also have pyqt for qtopia(opie?) based pda code...

all in all, the 760 does what I want/need.

Software / Games for C7x0?

« on: October 23, 2003, 07:12:05 pm »

(1) nethack (see m54.spy.org)
(2) mahjongg (man, I need to write my own)

I use those... then I also have played with:
(3) knights
(4) mame
(5) ?

missile command crashes for me.

I really want to get xu4 and exult working... I\'ll probably get scummvm working just enough to test the demo game.

Scott
ps: I\'m looking for ICC client, bsd-empire client, etc.

Themes, Icons, and Backgrounds / web hosting ...

« on: October 19, 2003, 11:14:49 am »

Ya, I found the shade option -- I wasn\'t sure what it did, really.

Also, the problem with many backgrounds is that all white text or all black text
may have spots on the background there it\'s not very visible, etc.  It\'s probably
true for any color, but white/black seem to be the only choice with the sharp-based
roms.

I also found zaurusthemes.com -- it\'s a little bit slow... but it\'s there.

I\'ll probably upload some things here too.

Ahh... it\'s always nice to hear about a new addition to the family.  You might as well say good bye to your wife, \'cause you probably won\'t see her much in the next couple days!

good luck!

ah, but my wife has the c700 and I use the c760 ... :-]

Site Suggestions, Requests, and Updates / Suggestion: FIX / SHORTEN UGLY URLS

« on: October 16, 2003, 04:07:18 pm »

Hey -- would it be possible to get another CGI here that has this by default:

http://www.zaurususergroup.com/modules.php...Wiki&file=index

so we could link via:

http://www.zaurusgroup.com/wiki?pagename=C7x0_ROMs

etc.  

That way, we can put other options in the link such as ?pagename=blah&this=that&more=done

but the basic URL link would be cut in 1/2 ...


That is --

CURRENT:
http://www.zaurususergroup.com/modules.php...ename=C7x0_ROMs

PROPOSED:
http://www.zaurususergroup.com/wiki?pagename=C7x0_ROMs

Or, can this be done now?

Scott
ps: also, does anyone now how to link to a named anchor in a page via phpwiki? thanks.

the box is basicall,y a linux box.  Yes, you scn stream to it.  look around for zradio and/or
tkcradio, etc.  You could probably also stream video to it, but I haven\'t tried it so I can not
comment on the performance.
