ipkg-link looked for loaded packages information in /media/card not /media/card/packages. In order to align ipkg with ipkg-link it was necessary to remove the /package dir from all the dest directives in /etc/ipkg.conf.

I just ipkg-link mount /media/card/packages and everything seems to work.

unable to sync between multisync 82 and Oz 3.5.3. The exact config on the Linux side worked on 3.5.1 and 3.5.2. The sync request is recongized on the Z but multisync reports "unable to sync" in the log.

I believe this is a naming and sym link issue; however to date no progress.

Multisync looks for Applications, Documents, and Settings in the / dir. It is necessary to add a sym link in / for Applications, Documents, and Settings to their location. In 3.5.3 that is in /home/root. Sync with multisync then works.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUG(s) :

When holding down the 4th button(beside of "house button" on the middle) the zaurus turns off the light and also shuts down. Then "Cancel On/Off" button doesn't bring it up again.

You will have to do a soft reset to turn the zaurus on again.

That would be the menu key for a short press, or turning the light off for a long press, as set in standard configuration.

I also have this problem, with the same symptoms described above.

Thank you for adding the right information.
I didn't know how to call that button.

Crash when scrolling thorugh text...

3.5.3 on a 5500, when I press and hold the right side of the 'ring' (not sure what the right word for that is) to scroll through text the zaurus crashes after about 8 characters, screen goes blank and I have to do a 'replace battery' reset to boot it again. This happens in any application.

There is a work around for this (actually two).
The first is not to press the right arrow "key" for more than 2 seconds at a time.

Second, a snippet from the [a href=\"https://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=Opie_3.5.3_on_the_5500]Zaurus 5500 How-To[/url]

Dunno if really this is an OZ bug... but... here is the strange thing that I encounter, of unstable IP address...

Have a wlan0 interface setup with a static IP : 192.168.2.3...
It works for a while (allowing me to connect via ssh from another host)... and suddenly after several minutes, the IP gets changed to 192.168.2.247...
I have to get back in the Network Parameters tool and reconfigure it to have it set back to the initially configured address... which after a while will unlock my SSH session...

Anybody experienced a similar behaviour ?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Malcolm, I wasn't aware of that HowTo, I've found all sorts of Zaurus resources but not that one.

That's rather odd.

Do you have a dhcp server running somewhere? Also, is udhcp (the client's name iirc) running on your Z?

Indeed, that's it...

I had a previous configuration with DHCP, and changed it for static IP.

It looks like the Network parameters application did not kill the running DHCP process when it was changed... looks like a bug... Well I'd like to report it, but I'm not so sure of where to do so...

Update : It looks like someone had the same problem before : [a href=\"http://opie-bugs.oszine.de/view.php?id=1033]http://opie-bugs.oszine.de/view.php?id=1033[/url] ... but that place didn't fit ... investigating a bit more...

Update 2 : Ok, reported as : http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=112

Hope ths is the right place now

Here is a rerun of a message to oe@ about 3.5.2; the same issue seems to exist in 3.5.3
The solution here was tested under 3.5.2.

the hooks for ssh-agent in /etc/init.d/opie do not seem to work.
I am using openssh

The first problem seems to be that gpe forks and exits so the call
ssh-agent does not really do anything. The second is that openssh
needs DISPLAY set, before it looks at SSH_ASKPASS.

I modified the relevant lines of /etc/init.d/opie as follows

Code: [Select]

  if [ -x "$OPIEDIR/bin/opie-sh-ssh-askpass.sh" ]; then
            export SSH_ASKPASS=$OPIEDIR/bin/opie-sh-ssh-askpass.sh
            export DISPLAY=dummy
        fi           
        echo Starting Opie....
        eval `$SSHAGENT`
        $OPIEDIR/bin/qpe -terminal 2

This is not really correct of course, since it will leave extra
ssh-agent process running if opie is restarted. On the other hand,
with this modification, opie-sshkeys actually works

Can someone suggest a better fix for starting ssh-agent? Is there a
way of having qpe not daemonize itself?
