I gave it the ol' college try with jeode. Still crashes. This is a really fresh install of Opie as well...

Grr, this is actually really starting to piss me off. If I can't get Opera working, then this thing is as good as a brick at work. I'd try Opera 6, but I seem to remember having problems with that too.

Been thinking. I just tried it on my Linksys CF wireless card, and it crashed. Then it dawned on me. It's not images, maybe it's flash sites that are wasting it. I shall see...

Well lookÃ¬e here...
This is on the Zaurus, and working fine. I bet if I go to http://macromedia.com it will crash. Be right back.

CaptainZilog · « **Reply #18 on:** February 10, 2005, 09:04:59 pm »

And there it went. It's flash, I'm almost positive.

I think some javascrips crash it. Try turning javascript off and going to those site.

I, uh, don't know how to disable javascript. I did disable images and now it seems to work on fark and opera.com.... Sigh. It also failed on my employer's website (http://www.d303.org) so I guess I proved it wasn't entirely flash's fault, however on any site that displays flash, it dies. Maybe it has a resource leak when viewing large images or trying to view flash...

It is under file(?)-prefrences-security. There is a box to enable javascript and some other stuff too.

Hope it helps some

I tried finding that, I don't think it's in there... I even went hunting around the opera.ini stuffs.

Either way, to quote the ZombieSimulator v_3b: A WINNAR IS ME!

I took the /home/zaurus/.opera/opera.ini file and increased the cache and document sizes to the max. Then I copied that monkey over to /root/.opera

Oh how sexy it is when stuff works right. I assume opera was wigging out cause it didn't allocate any cache to the thing.

Now to get xmms working right. Thanks guys, and uberjoe - you might want to try this too. It seems like it's the right fix.

If any of you know how to get an ogg vorbis stream (not file) working in xmms, let me know, I'll buy you a beer, some way, some how.

uberjoe · « **Reply #23 on:** February 11, 2005, 10:38:19 am »

I cp'd /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini to /root/.opera after changing the cache size to large. Later today I'll go out (wifi doesn't reach into my office) and try out a few large pages. More later.

MrSquishy · « **Reply #24 on:** February 11, 2005, 12:37:19 pm »

The package I made doesnt have a /home/zaurus directory, FYI.
You may have other stuff lingering around (I dont see why it would interfere though).

You should have /root/.opera linked to (/mnt/card)/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera

I would have liked to keep it simple and have postinst link to /opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera, but that doesnt exist until ipkg-link is called.

So if you didnt install it to SD, or if you'd just like to check, I moved /home/zaurus/.opera and /home/zaurus/.operasave into /opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.

uberjoe · « **Reply #25 on:** February 12, 2005, 12:48:34 pm »

All problems so far have been solved by copying opera.ini and increasing cache size. Every page I tried worked flawlessly, including java. Soon I will try an ssl connection. Thanks for the tip (and the modded ipk:))MrSquishy.

MrSquishy · « **Reply #26 on:** February 12, 2005, 09:28:55 pm »

You are very welcome, I hope it helped.

Something I forgot to mention, if you are upgrading/have an old install of Opera, make sure that /root/.opera gets removed.

If it is there, then the postinst wont link to the modified opera.ini

That opera.ini has a bunch of changes pointing to the location of libs and "stuff".

Wahoooo!!

You guys rock

Here's a recap of what I did (haven't tested it on anything but local docs yet, but given that it didn't crash on the animated Java logo on the default homepage, I'm hopeful that I am good to go...)

1. Uninstall previous Opera (7.3 something).
2. Removed all opera directories (find / -name opera and .opera and delete them)
3. Grabbed the package ref'd at the start of this thread.
4. ipkg -d sd install <pkg name>
5. ipkg-link add opera
6. ln -s /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera /home/root/.opera
7. (fiddled with the .desktop to put it where I wanted it and to use my preferred icon)
8. edited /mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/opera/.opera/opera.ini and changed cache entries to the Large settings
9. Launched it! It worked
10. Tried it out on the full index of my local jdk1.1.8 javadocs. No problemo... big file.
11. Thanked the gods and any deities I could think of that greater (and more patient) minds than mine had trod this road and DOCUMENTED their travels!!!!

Did I mention that you guys rock?

EDIT: I forgot to mention my details...
SL-5500 w/ OZ 3.5.2 Hentges ROM
256M SD
32M CF / DLink 660 CF Wifi
Jeode (maybe obvious from the java refs, but there ya go)
Whole bunch of other stuff
+ brand spankin' new Happy Browser

-Matt

thanks

It's too big to attach... 2.5 megs. How can I do it?
