C1000/3x00 General discussions / Suggestions Needed

« on: August 31, 2005, 08:34:30 am »

Hey all,

After the CF Slot on my c860 died Ihave decided to upgrade to a C1000 (was gonna cost 415 euros for repair, 420 euros for a reconditioned C860 or 490 Euros for a c1000). Anyway, I was wanting to see what software you, the zaurus experts, would suggest I use for the apps I need.

I would like to use pdaXrom as that is what I had installed on the c860 but I am open to other roms.

Basic list of applications follows:

Web browser (would like firefox but may be a better suggestion)
Remote desktop control
Video playback (DivX/Xvid if possible)
Audio Playback (thinking XMMS Embedded)
PIM
IRC (Xchat probably)
Word Processing
Spreadsheet
IP Scanning

If you guys could give me any ideas you have I would greatly appriciate it

Thanks in advance

What network are those IRC channels on?

Edit:

Ok I don't know what I have done...but I am getting a different error message on znester....

I tried to install snes9x as well and I am getting the same error from that.

The error is:

znester: symbol lookup error: /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0: undefined symbol: cmd__12QPaintDeviceiP8QPainterP13QPDevCmdParam

I know I am new, but this looks as if it is pointing towards the libSDL libraries....

I dunno if this helps any...hope so. Wanna play Zelda on the move lol.

Mickeyl: Do you think it would be worth me flashing back to the sharp ROM or sticking with OZ then. Sorry for the questions but if I don't ask I will never learn

Hi,

In reply to your questions/points:

Good good 

Have you run ipkg-link to create the symlink (automatically) to /usr/bin ?

Then you could just type znester on the command line (in any dir) and it would run.

I didn't do this manually but I saw that it was done when it was installing

Not a good sign. Where did you get the ipk/binary from?

Hope that helps...

At the moment the only thing I have working on it is XMMS and a friend helped me get that installed, so basically my Zaurus is a glorified MP3 player

D'oh sorry. Though I had put that in.

It is Open Zaurus, I believe it to be the latest version but I am at work and my Zaurus is at home so I can't be 100% sure. It is either the latest or the one just before it.

I Will double check and post here when I get home.

Hi, I will admit straight off that I am very new to the Zaurus and reasonably new to Linux (I can navigate and use the file system ok as well as some other things but I have a LONG way to go yet)

Anyway, I am trying to get znester running. I installed it using the package manager (probably a mistake from reading a bit, I should have done it from the terminal) and the program did install ok (from the CF card to the SD card). From there I used the terminal to navigate to the correct directory (/mnt/card.opt/QtPalmtop/usr/bin/ if it helps) and typed in ./znester

I was given the following error message:

./znester: symbol lookup error: ./znester: undefined symbol: __14QPEApplicationRiPPcQ212QApplication4Type

(putty is a great thing...would never have typed that right lol)

Anyway, I have NO idea what that means so any advice would help. I had a look around but couldn't find anything to help...knowing me I was looking in the wrong place.

Anyway, thanks in advance for any and all help
