Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Openzaurus 3.5.4.1 Released

« on: August 03, 2006, 08:09:39 pm »

Ok, I installed Totem from the feed, it runs, works for a second or so and then segfaults.

When run from a console, I get a thousand GTK+ errors... Any ideas?

Also, are there any unicode fonts in the feed? Will unicode fonts from the pdaxrom feed work with OZ & GPE? I already have a greek.xmodmap (thanks to fellow Greek user Nick), I just need some fonts!

Nope, this wont work for me, as I said the correct driver module is loaded for my card, I just can't seem to able to make it connect to my home wifi...

I can report it works like a charm on my Spitz. :-)

I am running GPE.

A couple of questions:

1) Will a swap partition of 256mb make any difference in speed?

2) Can anyone suggest a mplayer frontend?

3) How can I change the title font (I mean the font used in the window title, it's really tiny!)

Some more info on the problem:

It seems I can 'ifconfig wlan0 up' or 'ifconfig wifi0 up' to enable these interfaces.

If I bring up wifi0, the green led on my card starts flashing.

If I bring up wlan0, wifi0 also gets enabled. The green led flashes.

I have the correct settings in wifi & lan, yet I can't get it to connect...

Ok, here's the dmesg output after I've inserted my 660w Wifi card:

pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 1

Notice that the prism2 chipset is detected properly.

If I bring up the interface with ifconfig wlan0, still nothing...

C1000/3x00 Hardware / Help With Nand Bad Blocks!

« on: August 03, 2006, 05:41:29 am »

Guys, I need your help.

I have a C31K which has been working fine up until now.

I've flashed it about 5-6 times with different distros. I've been using pdaXrom 1.1.1 beta3.

Yesterday I gave beta4 a shot - this one uses a new bootloader, so I had to do some things from a recovery console first.

Whenever I erase the nand (flash_eraseall /dev/mtd5) I get 2 errors - it seems there are 2 bad blocks on my NAND chip! :-(

Yesterday, when I went into the diagnostics menu (D+M) and did a 'NAND Flash Erase' I got 1 error. Today I got two. What's happening? Is there anything I can do to repair these bad blocks?  

I really hope I don't have to ship it to Japan...

Thanks in advance!

pull your wifi card... then plug it in... open up the shell and type dmesg

If there is a way you could post the output to the forum it would help...

it seems like it isnt recognizing the card because there is no module set for it... or it isn't finding the firmware...

I'll try that.

For now I'm back to beta3, where everything works out of the box... :-)

Actually if I check the mounted filesystems with 'mount' it lists my 128MB CF card mounted alright... But my wireless card is a no-go... :-(

I installed beta4 on my C3K1 an hour ago and I still can't get my D-Link CF card to work, or any CF card for that matter!

Whenever I insert it into its slot, the light blinks once and then dies! The python CF/SD card utility detects my SD card properly, but in the CF section it shows the microdrive... I can mount it and unmount it but that's all... No CF cards for me! :-(

Can someone help me? I think I'll go back to beta3... :-/

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxrom 1.1.0beta 4 And New Bootloader

« on: August 02, 2006, 08:27:41 pm »

Just installed beta4 on my C31K.

Everything's good so far. I have a question though:

When I went into the diagnostic menu (M+D) and selected "NAND Flash Erase" I got an error after the flash was erased. It said there were 8 blocks and 1 was bad... That can't be good, right? I had OZ 3.5.4.1 before...

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Graphical Login For Pdaxrom

« on: May 17, 2006, 04:59:00 am »

Remember, you need to add a gdm user group:

addgroup gdm

and afterwards:

adduser gdm

It works for me, although when I start xfce4 the fonts are the wrong size - apparently Chero's xinitrc file is being loaded instead of mine. I'll see if I can find a way to edit the .conf file...

Also, Samba still doesn't work properly (see my thread about Samba & Collie) even on my 3100...

Installed it yesterday.

First impressions are good, suspend/resume works (except once when coming out of suspend my Z hanged).

For no reason whatsoever, keyboard input stopped working and I had to reboot.

A couple of segfaults here and there.

Will post more later.
