hmmm.... thats odd!?  It didn't ask me if i wanted to move the directories, but now it shows the SD twice in the system info.  As long as it aint messed up its fine.  It doesn't appear to have changed anything and the link you pointed me to said it doesn't free any space.  I don't mind it not freeing any space, but will it make sure i don't lose any more, or at least not too much more?  Sorry to be a nuisance but I refreshed the package lists a couple of times and it FILLED the z so that I couldn't install konquerer!

ok, everything was ok but now i've trashed gaim!  it wouldn't work with msn so i updated a few ipks and now the whole lot is dead.  I don't fancy having to reflash so is their anythjing i can do to fix it?

the error i get from konsole is

gaim: symbol lookup error: gaim: undefined symbol: gaim_eventloop_set_ui_ops

Any idea how to repair or could someone point me in the direction of the ipks that coredump used in this release?  many thanks in advance!

That's easy. Gaim was installed to your SD card. You can restore the SD installation into its
original state by wiping the card and reinstalling cardfs w/o flashing.

Details can be found here:http://www.hentges.net/misc/openzaurus/cardfs_howto.shtml#reinstall

That won't help you if you've FUBAR'ed your ROM though

hadn't thought of doing that... just did it and it works great now.  thanks.

Anyone know why gaim won't connect to msn or yahoo?  on msn it doesn't even try to connect, and on yahoo it just says 1% then thats it!  I'm using the install of gaim that comes with coredumps rom!  any help would be appreciated greatly, thanks.

I'm using opie-mail. Everything is working good. But when I got mail, the led is not blinking and I don't hear any sound. I added these settings in the configuration of opie-mail.

Have I to install some other packages?

I'd just like to add my name to the long list of thanks to CoreDump for his excellent contribution to the Zaurus. After many months of just forgetting I had one, its now back in action. I'd just like to say that the issues with MSN are down to Microsoft. They constantly change the MSN protocols to prevent people connecting to MSN on anything other than messenger. I use Slackware on my desktop, and updates to Gaim are frequent and generally contain updates for MSN. This is annoying I know, the only thing I can suggest is to try and persuade your friends to use something other than MSN! Anyone using Gaim or Trillian can opt for a number of IM networks.

Keep up the great work CoreDump!
