Jumbo Xqt Package
« Reply #330 on: November 28, 2005, 12:59:56 am »
woah, so many questions

freebird: you can use xfontsel to change the font. you can launch it from a terminal or if you are using the latest xqt jumbo cramfs image, it is also available from the fluxbox menu, btw, the cramfs images do not need to be installed to ext2, vfat or ext2/ext3 is ok. details on the cramfs packages can be found at http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/jumbo/xqtjumbo.html

marovada: you need to start qt explorer with root priviledges. the zaurus user does not have priviledges to create things on ext2 filesystem by default unless you chown all the files to zaurus user.

terryleung83: the gcc cramfs can be found at http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/stuff/

bam: which icon are you talking bout? too many of them on that screen

datajerk: F8 is keycode 102 I believe.  you could for example change the line
Code: [Select]
keycode   1 = Escapeto
Code: [Select]
keycode   1 = Escape F8 F8which changes the Esc key to be F8 if pressed with Shift or Fn key

cresho: this was intentionally. you need to clean your /etc/fstab entries. the xqt cramfs images used to mount to /home but the new installer now mounts them on /mnt but it doesn't clean up the /etc/fstab which needs to be done manually. just unmount all the images and then remove the entries in /etc/fstab and try running the installer again.

Jumbo Xqt Package
« Reply #331 on: November 28, 2005, 02:48:08 am »
Hi all

Meanie

1- If i want to install the cramfs images to /home can i use the first version of xqt-install.sh with the new xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs

2- In fact my gaol is to mount the  xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs then copy xqt-gtk-jumbo directory to  /home
 then to run xqt-setup from it (in other words to install xqt directly in the flash memory to avoid problems of mounting the cf)
I did it with the first xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs and it works,
but with the new release i have this prompt when trying to run ./xqt-setup from /home/xqt-gtk-jumbo directory:

 #bash: ./xqt-setup: cannot execute binary file

 what this prompt mean ????


thanks for your great help  

Cheers

I had the same problem with the cannot execute binary file.  It is because the shell file you download from meanie's site is a gz file.  It was easy to "decompress" following instructions from googling.  After that I also found you had to use the "cd" command to have the terminal pointing to the directory where you want to install.  Otherwise, the shell does not find the installation problems.

2nd nature to anyone who uses linux daily.  A refresher course for the rest of us.  Good luck.

I did a nand restore from a japanese sharprom.  I cannot install xqt.  still with the same problem.  I have automounter 4.5, sudo, zlib...

Does not work at all.  everything installs but.....the crams image gtk.

If i start off from the very first crams image you did and install.sh, works fine

but for newcomers, this isnt going to work since i downloaded everything fresh from bams site.  I always restart fresh and keep a working progress available incase it doesnt work.

this case, its not working at all.  i also noticed that the gtk crams jumbo is 12.7 mb big.....i think.  original was more than that.

Jumbo Xqt Package
« Reply #336 on: November 29, 2005, 04:57:14 pm »
Hello Meanie,

I also have problems with xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramsf file.
I downloaded it and used unzip on my desktop (UnZip 5.52 from debian unstable) for extraction. Unzip didn't complain at all. However after I mount cramfs image I can see that xqt-setup is corrupted, i.e. it contains only 0x0 chars. The same can be said about lot of other files included in this package. Some other files are OK. It seems that cramfs zip file is corrupted somewhere in the middle. It's also possbile that my unzip is not able to handle it correctly. Thus I want to ask you. Could you check original file and publish its MD5 sum? I was not able to find it.

I downloaded file from http://www.thegrinder.ws/Meanies_XQT/xqt-g...umbo.cramfs.zip twice. Both files have following MD5 sum.

Code: [Select]
bdd3f359e1ad50cf4503e9ccfac3ae3c  xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs.zip
I downloaded also other cramfs images and scripts. They are working well. MD5SUMs are below.

Code: [Select]
63e912995c89f857576780df48dd7ae2  xqt-apps.cramfs.zip
e77dc872abd41a0d13cc2dbc48068c5f  xqt-cleanup.zip
c56e138b292a5785b0bc2325926d769d  xqt-install.sh.zip
49eea238d0005df251aab1c8eccd759d  xqt-mozilla.cramfs.zip
094280fe05f924aa7c7d2617f5ff0cb0  xqt-openoffice.cramfs.zip

I tried also your .ipk package of xqt (i.e. xqt-gtk-jumbopack_0.4.3-0.7_arm.zip - BTW zip is bigger than included ipk package). I was able to install it on SD card (on SL6000 tosa) and xserver was working well(I got blackbox running with terminal).

Nice work! I didn't thought I will be running Xserver on sharp rom. Hopefully we'll find what's wrong with jumbo-cramfs file soon.

Cheers, PM

guys, the xqt-gtk jumbo file is corrupted. please don't try to download it until the problem is rectified. it may however take some time to fix since bam is hosting the files for me and I am travelling around again (well, I am travelling around every week) and uploading files to bam's ftp server from an internet cafe isn't so easy around here.

The versions of the cramfs files I got didn't seem corrupted, so maybe you can pick them up from my site in the mean time, until the official site with them gets back in place.

XQT Cramfs files

I only have the apps, mozilla, and gtk-jumbo files.

Hope this can help some of you out until Meanie gets the regular site back in action.

Hi soundwave106!

Thanks for your cramfs image. I can confirm that your is working fine for me. There is also new package available on Meanie's site but it isn't working again (it has the same size as yours but it's still broken).

So correct file size is 17398837 bytes.

MD5SUMs follows:
working file from soundwave106's page:
Code: [Select]
dff38e395485d1de9146433a05b6f4e2  xqt-gtk-jumbo.zip
broken file from Meanie's page downloaded 2005-11-30 8:30 CET (GMT +1)
Code: [Select]
885d475872348ce2a5f1498d0153b09d  xqt-gtk-jumbo.cramfs.zip
Thank you guys! PM

soundwave106: What version of the xtq-gtk jumbo do you have installed? You can find out by executing the version script which is located in the same location as the xqt-setup.
Check whether it is 0.7.2 (previous version) or 0.7.3 (latest version)

The version I uploaded to my site is 0.7.2. If Bam's got the latest version on his site, I'll go ahead and delete the files out of mine (unless you want me to grab the files Bam has got and put it on my site for backup).

Meanie, what do I use for x-devel?  I have been using the x-devel from xqt .9, but now that I run jumbo, I'd like the most recent for building apps.

Thanks.

BTW, xqt apps that I have built that also work with jumbo-xqt (1.9 xqt)
