Angstrom & OpenZaurus / X11 Forwarding?

« on: June 17, 2006, 07:49:04 pm »

I'm trying to get X11 forwarding from my 5500 to my laptop working. I've followed all the steps I can find online, and it seems like it'd work, but apparently not. When i try to run sylpheed, I get the error

Code: [Select]

root@exiguitas:~# sylpheed

(process:1765): LibSylph-WARNING **: SSLv23 SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations failed.


(process:1765): LibSylph-WARNING **: TLSv1 SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations failed.

Suggestions?

Software / Minimo web browser reported running on Zaurus

« on: June 15, 2006, 01:30:07 am »

and is it in the OZ/GPE feeds? I'm looking to move away from dillo, and firefox's icons are too big for the 5500 screen. Are there other browsers that work?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Any Way To Change Size Of The Icons In Programs?

that's an awful lot of work, to do that for every icon there. Is there something similar? I've got dillo installed, and that seems to fill the need for a web browser. I'm looking for a way to check my e-mail, and preferably IM as well. I haven't actually tried a gaim window, so I'll look into that. How about photo manipulation?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Any Way To Change Size Of The Icons In Programs?

« on: June 14, 2006, 12:16:53 am »

I installed a bunch of programs, firefox, thunderbird, gimp, gaim, and a couple of others.  I tried using firefox, and the icons were too big, made it basically unusable, same for gimp and gaim. Is there any way to make the icons smaller? I'm running a 5500, so the resolutions not the best, but it works. Suggestions? If there isn't, do you have any alternatives? Like versions that were meant for the Z maybe?

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Bricked(hopefully Not) 5500

I honeslty don't know how I did it, but it worked. I've successfully got OZ/GPE on my Z

I let the battery sit out for a while, and then tried to reflash. It's in the process of doing so now, hopefully this works.

Ok, it acts like it finished flashing. but it won't boot. Suggestions? The power light still isn't coming on. I can get into diagnostic mode, but it didn't ask me to press the reset button, all I needed to do was press D + P, and it went into diagnostic mode.

I was trying to flash back from pdaxrom. Well, ok, initially I was going to try pdaxrom, from GPE. THat didn't work, I wasn't actually downloading the zimages(links were broken). So I tried to flash back to OZ. I accidentally pulled the battery, and now my Z won't flash at all. I've googled around, and searched this forum, and haven't really found anything. None of the lights turn on, it's not taking power(or the light isn't showing that it's taking power). Even after trying the flash process again, it doesn't do anything. Suggestions? I really don't want to have to buy another Z.

yeah, sorry, I was posting from a page that hadn't been refreshed, so I didn't see your updates at all. I'll see if I can do this. I tried to go back to OZ, assuming pdaxrom had dropped support for the 5500, and now I can't get it to flash at atll, the lights don't turn on.

ok, there's been a status change. I tried to flash to pdaxrom, and turns out, there is no pdaxrom for 5500. So I redownloaded the stuff for OZ/GPE, but I messed up and pulled the battery. Now it won't flash, none of the lights turn on. I'm pretty sure I haven't bricked it, but I need a way to fix it. Any ideas? I downloaded the 64-0 image, with plans to install to SD.

UPDATE: Yeah, you're right, it's the html file I downloaded. Is there another place to download it? Or does pdaxrom not support the 5500 any more?

no, the lights don't  stay on. I'm assuming what's going on is that the two files aren't valid. I need to pick up a card reader today, in order to reformat and start over. Thanks

following those instructions didn't seem to work. I renamed the zimage, and it still didn't work. Originally it would start to boot OZ(what I had previously), and not get anywhere. Now it won't even light up the charge light. It won't turn onl. I'm pretty sure I haven't bricked it, because a reflash does the same thing, but the lights do come on. Suggestions?

nobody has any ideas? This is kind of frustrating. I purchased a wifi card explicitly so I'd be able to surf with it, and now I can't get a browser installed.

yeah, it installed all dependencies, but I eventually shut it down by flipping the batter switch, because it had hung. I tried the GUI again last night, and when I left for school this morning, it was still sitting there. Does the OPIE package manager work?
