This is very, very old news. They still haven't delivered any ROMs.

Qtopia 2.1.0 source has been out just over a month, but 2.1.1 is new, although it has still come out fairly quickly after 2.10. I'm guessing there were severe problems with 2.1.0. In any case this will only delay a ROM

The ROM is finally available for download!

looks like 6000 wireless is fixed! Excellent! will flash this afternoon (though I'm really looking forward to this on guylhem rom, with fastffpe and better nand partitioning)

2.1.1 Beta ROM has been there since at least 28th Feb - is this a new one ??

under known issues on the 6k it gives instructions using ifup to get wireless going. When I tried the first release the issue was there being no wireless for the 6k. Based on this, I think it might be.

the 6000 rom has been updated from the one there before.

I tried it briefly. Very nice this time around (though I took the wireless on faith). I might very well spend the time to get it all setup as my standard qtopia setup (replacing my much worked on sharprom w/ fast kernel)

minor quibbles:
Background images don't scale
The partitions follow the sharp model, with a big fat home that I don't need and only 6 megs of / that I need desperately ( I doubt I can get kino/mplayer opera and kismet or wellenreiter into that space). (hence the comment re guylhem rom)
I tried to unsinstall some games to free up space through the package manager. It wanted to uninstall the things the packages depended on... ie to remove parashoot I'd have had to remove libqpe. Not really a good option.

does Cacko team ready for this?

Probably a dumb question, but can you install a new version of Qtopia over an old one, such as the one supplied with a Cx000?

adf · « **Reply #11 on:** May 14, 2005, 05:47:41 pm »

It install over the previous image.
on My 6k I needed to have a sharprom setup (without serious mods) to make the update work.

My solution was to restore factory state. You should probably just try it, and only restore to factory if it is working really strangely, since there is supposedl;y a reisk in that kind of restoration.

Biggest problem with this on the 5500 -- can't add any programs.

omro · « **Reply #13 on:** May 14, 2005, 06:02:50 pm »

The reason why I do not change partitions is that changing partitions is dangerous.
Although being about to install to the user directory would be good.

I have no problems uninstalling parashoot, or anything else.
