Sharp ROMs / Watapon ROM

« on: April 25, 2005, 03:52:54 pm »

try this ipk and let me know if it works (so I can add it to my feed)
http://familiar.handhelds.org/releases/v0....95.7-r0_arm.ipk

repacks I have not compiled anything, I usally unpack it and change the directories arround if need be, remove any help files (help browser removed in watapon), change the icon and application description.. I perfer the way chaos dosent specifically name the program icons.. eg, Opera is called webbrowser and ZSafe is password manager.. I do the same for like ZBedic is Dictionary.. also Watapon does not have the same default tabs as the Sharp rom so I re-organize icon locations to be more logical..  most of the stuff is cosmetic specific to Watapon.

Sharp ROMs / Watapon ROM

« on: April 22, 2005, 05:51:32 pm »

They arent in the feed because I dont need them personally..
I'll throw them in my feed today but I wont have a chance to test them out for a while since my dsl is down for the next week while I move to a new house..

If anyone thinks something should be added to the feed pls email me and I will be happy to do it..

I know chaos is currently working on adding the new KDE/Pi version to an upcoming 1.6.2 release, and I am working on a host-ap package but I dont expect it to be ready until after this semester. All in all I dont see a lot of changes, just sime minor tweaks here and there.

*EDIT*
Packages Added, I have no idea if they work or not so let me know. I created the apache package with little more than the binary and as far as I know its the only package with php5

Accessories / Cf Or Sd? What Do You All Suggest?

« on: April 14, 2005, 04:12:33 pm »

same as lardman, I dont have any CF storage devices, I like to keep it open for Wifi, Camera and soon GPS..

and my case also carries sd cards much easier than CF cards (cf are too thick really)

You proably dont have the routes setup properly..
type "route" and paste the output

I use debian and here is my setup.. I use watapon but I dont use the docking cradle, all of this was setup back when I was running OZ
/etc/network/interfaces

Code: [Select]

iface usb0 inet static
        address 192.168.129.127
        pointopoint 192.168.129.201
        netmask 255.255.255.128

and a script in /etc/network/if-up.d/50zaurus

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
 case $IFACE in
  usb0)
   echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
   iptables -t filter -F FORWARD
   iptables -t filter -P FORWARD DROP
   iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -s $IF_POINTOPOINT/$IF_NETMASK -j   ACCEPT

Accessories / Quest Bk2 Battery In Usa

« on: April 13, 2005, 08:26:57 pm »

the Playstation Portable (PSP) uses the same power source as the Zaurus..
there is another thread here: https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=11839&hl=psp
that talks about using the $17 PSP PowerBrick with the Zaurus..

the good news is you can proably find one locally..

The car adapters and other battery packs for the PSP should also work with the Zaurus

General Discussion / Psp Power Brick!

thx for the pix, that is perfect.. I think I shall go pick one up on payday, I dont run my battery down often but when I do its damn inconvienant..

3600mAh is just slightly 2x more capacity than the 1700mAh battery in my Z so I would expect I shouldent ever run out of power again..

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Exchanged Microdrive With Flash Card (c3000)

« on: April 12, 2005, 07:49:44 pm »

that is brillant, should save battery life.. the microdrive will have a longer life span so keep it arround. check to make sure there isint a swap parition on the flash card as it could kill your flash card much quicker. (I obviously dont have a C3000)

Can you take a pix of it with your Zaurus so we can compare the size

Sharp ROMs / Newbie 5600

« on: April 07, 2005, 02:48:04 pm »

dont know what would cause the permissions to change, proably a poorly packaged ipk messed things up...

Also, since you are running the 5600 as well I suggest giving the Watapon ROM a try, as its the only sharp rom for the 5600 that is being activly maintained... http://zaurus.duelmonsters.ca/

Sharp ROMs / Install Wellenreiter In Original Rom 3.13

« on: April 06, 2005, 06:19:54 pm »

its "non-root", hold down on the wellenreiter icon and it will open the properties window where you can specify running it as root.

I had no luck w/wllenreiter on the sharp rom, ya have to switch to hostap which can be troublesome..
