Hello,
Could someone with a C1000 or a C3000 please tell me if an external keyboard work fine by default, or if any application is needed to fix the keys?
In any case, I'd need a copy of /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/qpe and /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/libqpe* /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/libqte* for a sl6000 keyboard hack...
Thanks in advance

Keyboards work pretty well - from what I've read about the 6000 it sounds the same as the support in the later 6000 Sharp roms.
My testing has been done with a C1000 with the default 1.01jp rom.
All the alphanumeric keys work fine. All other keys work according to their Zaurus keymap and are accessible using F11 as function.
Esc - Escape/Cancel
F1 - Either the backlight or the whole screen turns off. Can't tell.
F2 - The bottom soft application key. (The icons down the left side of the screen. Defaults to the translating software on the 860/1000)
F3 - Escape/Cancel
F4 - Enter/Ok (Probably for the portrait mode keys on the back of the Z)
F5 - Calendar (Probably for the portrait mode keys on the back of the Z)
F6 - Addressbook
F7 - Mail
F8 - Check Mail (Push and hold "Mail" on the Z keyboard)
F9 - Synchronize (Push and hold "Calendar" on the Z Keyboard)
F10 - Appears to be unused.
F11 - Function
F12 - Home
My USB keyboard is for a PS2. The buttons marked "S1" and "S2" are where the windows keys would normally be, and activate the "Menu" key.
In case you don't know what the clamshell keymapping looks like:
With Function (F11) Held:
1 - Font Smaller
2 - Font Bigger
3 - Backlight Dim
4 - Backlight Brighten
W - ^
E - =
R - +
T - [
Y - ]
U - Japanese Open Quote
I - Japanese Close quote
D - .
F - \ In a Japanese character map you get a Yen symbol, but computers treat it like a backslash anyway. Same thing happens when using a Japanese character map on a desktop computer.
G - ;
H - :
J - *
K - Yen symbol
L - |
X - Cut
C - Copy
V - Paste
B - _
- - @
~ - Japanese Mode key (Kana/Romanji)
The only problem I've found thus far is { and }, which is probably due to weirdness with all the bracket keys and the comma key.
The , and . keys on the Z are overloaded and mode sensitive. In english mode you get:
Normal: , and .
Shifted: / and ?
Control: { and }
Function: < and >
When you're in Japanese input mode the normal key entries give you a Japanese comma (backwards), and a Japanese period (small round dot). All other entries are the same.
The keys , and . and / on the USB keyboard act normally for the USB keyboard.
Normal: , . /
Shifted: < > ?
Unfortunately, where Control - , would get you a { on the Z, it does nothing from the USB keyboard. The USB keyboards [ and ] keys give you:
Normal: @ [
Shifted: ` {
I can't find the } anywhere on the USB keyboard.
Incidently, Home, End, Page Up, Page down, numlock and the keypad on the USB keyboard all work just like you'd expect them to. Fortunately, leaving numlock on doesn't seem to affect the Z's built in keyboard as there is no way to turn numlock off on the Z itself.
As for the files, /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/qpe is a simlink to /usr/QtPalmtop.rom/bin/qpe
In /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/ you have
libqpe.so, libqpe.so.1, and libqpe.so.1.5, all symlinked to libpqpe.so.1.5.0, which is a symlink to /opt/QtPalmtop.rom/lib/libqpe.so.1.5.0
libqte.so, libque.so.2, libqte.so.2.3, all symlinked to libqte.so.2.3.2, which is a symlink to /usr/QtPalmtop.rom/lib/libqte.so.2.3.2
I can't upload the files here - they're ~7mb in total. PM me and I'll send them to you.
