Cosmo Communicator - Android / Re: Android v25 Firmware
« Last post by wy328 on March 27, 2024, 02:34:23 am »Bear in mind, this was only by luck I found the OTA package on an old server of mine, so obviously it's not an official solution.
Although I suspect the next update for Cosmo will *have* to be an OTA package like in my Git repository, because the Wireless Updater is offline.
I get an error message after OTA updater find the local OTA package and rebooted my cosmo. Is it the package on github with 134bytes? Thanks!

Gemini PDA - General Discussion / Re: Current use of Gemini?
« Last post by jakfish on March 26, 2024, 06:05:11 pm »I just got exagear working on Gemian. Dunno if x-86 apps are of interest to you, but Word 97 (my all-time favorite wp) runs swimmingly on Gemian once past
97's slow start. exagear is now licensed abandonware, but the wget patch makes it run without problem: https://github.com/ryanfortner/exagear-rpi
Let me know if this is something you want because sources.list in the exagear container needs some tinkering.

Gemini PDA / Good case for Gemini found
« Last post by depscribe on March 26, 2024, 04:53:16 pm »I got a nice Turtleback case for my Pixel phone (running GrapheneOS), and it's a little too big. Turns out, it fits the Gemini perfectly, not loose and not tight. Magnetic closure. Strong belt clip. Holds device vertically.

Gemini PDA - General Discussion / Current use of Gemini?
« Last post by depscribe on March 26, 2024, 04:42:07 pm »Hi, everybody!
Still have my Gemini. Still mint, still works perfectly. Just got it out, fired it up. Single boot to Debian. Everything is of course outdated, with no hope of easy upgrade. I may try to get Proton VPN running on it, using the old OpenVPN recipe.
Thought I would check and see if anyone has come up with new and imaginative use for the Gemini. I kind of like the little guy (except for the carefully sharpened hinge ends) and would like to put it to use. If cellular had ever been made to work reliably I'd spring a few bucks a month for Mint Mobile or something for it.
Anybody cook up anything interesting for the Gemini?

General Discussion / Hrw recalls his 20 years of work on the Arm architecture
« Last post by Varti on March 12, 2024, 10:31:42 am »https://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2024/02/12/twenty-years-of-my-work-with-arm-architecture/
Hrw was OpenZaurus' release manager and a prolific poster on OESF. His work on Arm started when he bought a SL-5500.
I hope to see him logging here someday again to say hello, and wishing him many years of prolific work and fun on Arm platforms!

Astro Slide - General Discussion / Re: Has anyone here seen any signs of life from Planet lately?
« Last post by jakfish on March 05, 2024, 06:12:07 pm »Hmm. I hope you're right, Dom. Since this is the go-to forum for all things Planet, and since the forum posts have dropped precipitously, both from the unavailability/shipment of current devices and a general dearth of PC response, I can't find much promise. But I have fingers crossed for your perspective.
I've cobbled together a $4usd battery and my Gemini to run 3-5 hours on a Gemian install, and that has been great, but not much is going on OESF, which tells me not much is going on with PC

Gemini PDA - Linux / Re: Best Backup for Gemian?
« Last post by jakfish on February 28, 2024, 03:27:48 pm »Per its manual: a user can restore a timeshift snapshot via another linux machine as long as timeshift is installed on both machines.
Right now, I have a successful snapshot made of Gemian, with timeshift installed on both Gemian and another linux computer. But I can't seem to connect the two to bring up the Gemini partition.
I haven't yet set port forwarding on my router to enable ssh to the Gemini, but even if I could, I don't believe timeshift would see the Gem partition to overwrite it with the snapshot.

« Last post by gabs5807 on February 28, 2024, 02:53:22 pm »On my linux system i trigger a rsnapshot via systemd. Sorry 
- i did not find the description for that, but systemd could start jobs if an external device is pluged in. This should also be possible for harddisks attached on the PDA - i think
