Opera 7.55 Seg Fault

[kombi]

I installed opera into my SD card and got linking errors, but i get the same error while trying to run. I am new to installing OZ and maybe I am missing something.  How do I first fix the linking errors trying to install apps to my SD card.  And what would be the command for makecompat if I installed to my SD card? What does makecompat do anyway?

Have you formatted your SD-card with ext2 so you can install and symlink apps on it? If not please do... if you need any help the instructions are in the how-to section of OESF:
https://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=Step-b...ing_for_newbies

If your not using the Hentges Rom you will need to install the sharp-compat-libs_xxxx.ipk from the 3.5.3 opie feed then follow the instructions in this thread:
https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=14311

The sharp-compat-libs will allow opera to be used with the current OZ builds. You can use them with the libraries icon in the settings tab or the makecompat command. For more info please search makecompat and compat-libs on the boards.

Thanks for the info. Now I have everything installed to run Opera and I linked it using the sharp libs but I am getting:

Opera 7.55 was terminated due to signal code SIGSEGV

Any ideas?

Start it from the command line in your terminal and post the output.

What model Z are you using? Are you installing to /media/card or /media/card/packages?

Your missing a symlink or 2... make sure you have symlinked:
/opt/QtPalmtop/opera 'to'
/media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera 'and'
/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini 'to'
/media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini

I am using a Zaurus 5500, I am using the Packing Manager to do the install and i tell it to install on the SD card.

[Greg2]

I am using the Packing Manager to do the install and i tell it to install on the SD card.

That is not in the instructions I linked you to... they clearly say open a terminal and use the command line.

However since you have already installed it with the Package manager you can try from the terminal:

Code: [Select]

ipkg-link mount /media/cardThat should link everthing... then restart opie and try it out.

Please note that the Opera 7.55 ipk in 'this' thread was made to be installed in a specific location with a specific set of commands from the terminal unless you modify the postinst script.

Perhaps you need to link not to /media/card/... but to /media/card/packages/...
I have got this problem on my Z and needed to relink all stuff manually.

root@kombi:~# ipkg-link mount /media/card
*** Command: mount
ls: /media/card/usr/lib/ipkg/info/*.list: No such file or directory
*** Done.

root@kombi:~# ipkg-link mount /media/card
*** Command: mount
ls: /media/card/usr/lib/ipkg/info/*.list: No such file or directory
*** Done.

OK... that means you are installing to /media/card/packages
So do:

Code: [Select]

ipkg-link mount /media/card/packagesPlease note as I have said before that the postinst script in this ipk was made to install to /media/card so you will have to check your symlinks if you have anymore problems.

As an alternative you could search the forums for an ipk that someone has modified (iirc) to install to /media/card/packages

Hi,

i know i am renewing this older thread but think its worth doing it.

I reactivated my zaurus and i tried to get some info on what is going wrong with opera on OZ and sl5500.

My setup :

Zaurus SL-5500G
Openzaurus 3.5.3  
+ collie upgrades  ( 3.5.3/feed/upgrades/collie  )
+ upgrades          ( 3.5.3/feed/upgrades/  )
+ kernel               kernel_2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix-r21_collie   (hrw built kernel)


Opera specific things:

used
sharp-compat-libs_0.5-r2_arm.ipk , opera_7.55.6079_arm.ipk

done the things described in this thread (updating javamates list now) :


(0. fresh installed OZ as said before)

(1. ext2 on sd card, see sd card ext2 formatting )

1. installed the compat libs on sd

Code: [Select]

ipkg -d sd install sharp-compat-libs_0.5-r2_arm.ipk
ipkg-link add sharp-compat-libs
2. installed opera on sd

Code: [Select]

ipkg -d sd install opera_7.55.6079_arm.ipk
ipkg-link add opera
3. link .opera to roots home

Code: [Select]

ln -s /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera /home/root/.opera
(4. edit .desktop   -- skipped this, still useful )

5. edited /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini and changed cache entries to the Large settings

6. checked the symlinks

Code: [Select]

/opt/QtPalmtop/opera --> /media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera

and

/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini --> /media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini

7. ipkg-link  (note the ../packages for 3.5.3 oz rom)

Code: [Select]

ipkg-link mount /media/card/packages
8. linked missing symlink to /media/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/ini/standard_mouse.ini  in /opt/QtPalmtop/opera/ini/

Code: [Select]

ln -s /media/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/ini/standard_mouse.ini  /opt/QtPalmtop/opera/ini/
9. makecompat

Code: [Select]

makecompat /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/opera
10. run /opt/QtPalmtop/opera in console    (to be sure the right one ist runned, the compat linked one,  )

Code: [Select]

cd /opt/QtPalmtop/opera
./opera

and getting:
window looking almost like an opera pops up, closes and :

Code: [Select]

Segmentation fault
so if you do everything here you still have a problem,  if anyone knows what the real problem is reply please , i have done my best to get rid of the small errors.


thx,

Ferron

I am not sure, but last time I have been reinstalling opera  the symlink /usr/share/opera gave me a hard time. Check there it points to.

Good luck!

[Ferron]

Hi,

i did a find / -name opera and i would ask you if you can do the same to check if all folders and links are similar

/opt/QtPalmtop/bin/opera
/opt/QtPalmtop/opera
/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/opera
/opt/QtPalmtop.compat/bin/opera
/opt/QtPalmtop.compat/opera
/usr/share/opera
/media/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/bin/opera
/media/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera
/media/card/packages/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/opera
/media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera
/media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/opera

thx for help,

Ferron
