Zerik, I don't understand this statement.  What is preventing you from downloading from the feed?

Nice!    I have one problem though- you cannot download off the feed to a PC. I have no zaurus network card

You have to options:

1. Read instructions on the feed page
2. Read FAQ

Good luck

I'm not sure why the Cacko feed doesn't want browsable directories like other feeds (probably bandwidth?). But you can always go to the Packages file and copy and paste to do a direct DL to the PC.

For example, the Netfront package is netfront_3.1-lite-1_arm.ipk. Copy and paste the current feed URL (http://bryandeluca.com/cacko/feed/) in front of that package name, and you get http://bryandeluca.com/cacko/feed/netfront...-lite-1_arm.ipk.

You can also, if you want, do a network install just as well.

Hopefully this helps.

Thanks for helping us out  I'm having hard times explaining obvious (to me at least) things...

Bryan, how about we just copy and paste this whole post to the front page of the feed

Here is the reason I don't encourage downloading of individual packages.

A package feed is intended to have your Zaurus install software over the network with all the dependencies and all the goodies in one place.  If someone wants to install the packages manually that is their perrogative and they are able to do so with the current setup.  I was trying to reduce the number of "Where is the dependency for package xyz?" type questions and encourage people to use the feed the way it was intended.  As a side benefit it does reduce bandwidth use, but that was not my primary motivation.

Hello, I use the old full Cacko 1.22. On the Cacko-feed are now applications intended only for Cacko-lite (netfront, opera...).

This is not a big problem, but I would suggest to move these application in an extra feed and add this feed to cacko-light ROM by default.

So Cacko users see only the normal Cacko-feed and
Cacko-light users see both Cacko-feed and Cacko-light-feed. (I guess OZ works like this)

Greetings, Christoph Held

All the "lite" applications in the feed are labeled as such.  Look at the version information.  We could segregate the packages easily though.

In 1.21 there was an applet to control the screen brightness without having to use the Power&Light settings panel and without using the keyboard (for when you are in portrait mode). I can't seem to find it either in the feed or in the base ROM itself. Is it still available?

Yes, but it has been merged with the battery applet - click on the battery applet and you'll see the slider to adjust brighness.

Thanks, that is  coolness!   I was running out of space on the applet/task bar when in portrait mode! Nice touch, merging the applets.

As one of the original proponents of the Lite ROM, I'd like to thank Maslovsky and the rest of the Cacko team (that is not really clear to me, who are actually part of the "Cacko team"?) for this excellent piece of work. Cacko just keeps getting better and better!

Just installed Cacko Lite.  Am very impressed so far.  I would like to extend my sincere thanks and congratulations to the Cacko Team.   (And I'll be putting my money where my big fat mouth is by making a donation after I get paid.)

Hi, Anton and Stupkid (sorry, don't know your real name).
  I got Cacko-Lite installed (that sounds cool.  Cacko-Lite).  And I was enjoying the hell out of it.  And then a funny error cropped up.  I de-installed TextMaker and then tried to re-install it, and I kept getting errors.  So, as a test, I de-installed a couple more apps, and couldn't re-install them.  Frustrated, I re-flashed Cacko and the error got even worse from there.  After installing two, maybe three Apps, the system wouldn't let me install anything anymore.  It would just return the same two errors.  One was vague - Ipkg can't complete.  Sorry.  The other wasn't much better - The name of this file contains characters that Ipkg can't read.  Please re-name.  I did some reading on the forums and, after putzing around for a little while, I thought that maybe it was a bad NAND block or two.  So I tried changing partition sizes, hoping that I could work around the problem.  The number of files that I could install before hitting the problem did change.  It varied from eight apps installable to as few as two or three.  Finally, I restored a NAND backup of my old Sharp ROM setup (with all of its myriad problems), and it seems to work ok (other than being the Sharp ROM).

The million dollar question is: What went wrong?  And why?

Jomo, have you tried running the normal Cacko ROM and watching what happens then?

Nope.  Haven't tried the full Cacko.  Did restore the old Sharp.  That seems to work, but I haven't really done more than (re)install one ipk, so I don't know what the deal is.  I started a new thread and stupkid's  trying to help me out.  He asked me to get him the output of ipkg from the command line.  I'll stop diverting this thread.
