Installing Perl
« on: August 03, 2006, 10:07:19 pm »
I have my new 3200 and am trying to install perl
I have located a Peerl__5.8.0_arm.ipk
Using the package nstaller it installed but there were errors.
Where can I find the error messages?

Does anyone have a link to zudoku?

I went to terminal, and su
and tried again and I get a message that the drive is read only

This package was originally created for the 5500.


I noticed that the filesystem is a bit different from my other machines, is there a document explaining the sharp file system and where things are supposd to go?  Are the other images closer to LSB?

I finally got the fgilab sudoku to load, and the old palm stylus is working, but doesn't fit in the slot.

1. download http://bryandeluca.com/cacko/feed/perl-bas...6.1-8.7_arm.ipk
http://bryandeluca.com/cacko/feed/perl_5.6.1-8.7_arm.ipk
http://bryandeluca.com/cacko/feed/libperl_5.6.1_arm.ipk
2. goto http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/custom.html#perl, and read everything, it will give you a very good start.

personally I use gcc 2.95-2 from the above mentioned site, it has perl in the image, works just fine for compiling and whatnot, personally I prefer python, but my old friend keeps buggin me to learn perl.
