Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom On C3000 Yet?

« on: August 19, 2005, 04:57:03 am »

When I donated last month Laze wrote that they are working on the C3k version. He, however, didn't give an exact date. I hope it is rather sooner than later, as I really love pdaxrom (Hancom sheet is crap compared to gnumeric...).

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Keep Pdaxrom Alive

« on: August 16, 2005, 08:56:37 am »

I donated last month and I'm willing to donate another 50$ once a C3k version is available.

Maybe it would make sense to split the donations to the various projects e.g.
- C3k Port     250$
- C3100 Port   10$
- OpenOffice    75$
As the development effort would thus be transparently invested in the various sub-projects this might attract more donations for the highly requested projects.

what do you think?

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Rc 10 On C3000 With Dual Boot

« on: July 25, 2005, 04:03:59 am »

Over the weekend I tried installing pdaxrom on my c3k and it kind of works. haven't tried networking, but I could install applications and run them. the main problem is, that I can only suspend the Z once. all further suspend cycles don't turn off the HD LED. LCD seems to be turned off. I tried many different thinks to correct this to no avail. another problem I still could not solve is that the time/date gets lost after every reboot.

My next approach was to install RC10.1 on a SD card (the init script provided in this thread is not complete and needs some reworking to get SD boots working). I got it working after a couple of trials, but I still have problems with suspending the Z. the behaviour is, however, different, as the window manager crashes (no window decorations) after resume. this might be related to the time/date problem I still have.

My knowledge of the inner workings of the zaurus are still limited and I fear that I'm not up to the task of solving the remaining problems. I'll therefor donate to speed up the development process of the C3000 version.

pdaxrom rocks!
