Jumbo Xqt Package
« Reply #390 on: December 15, 2005, 11:43:05 pm »
im putting up my notes.

install--needed files or it will not work
----------------------------------------
automounter-c3000_0.4.5_arm.ipk
sudo_0.1_arm.ipk
zlib_1.2.3-1_arm.ipk
qconsole(disable magnifyby holding down with stylus and removing check)

placed all crams images in /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt
then
cd /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt
then
./xqt-install.sh

fn stylus right click.....
menu and hit fullscreen for fullscreen

unmount before backing up or restoring
mount

always su before
su


to stop processess before backup, do this
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop stop
and then you can backup.
to start up processess
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop start
use mount to see the mounted stuff.  
reboot when necessery cuz it leaves a bunch of
virtual drives in the file manager or you can try and unmount

if you need to eject the sd card, su then /etc/rc.d/init.d/mntloop stop then
umount /mnt/card
to remount if you did not reboot, mount /mnt/card
type mount for status of mounted files.

cd /mnt/card/QtPalmtop/xqt is the location where i have it stored.

seems like the mozilla cramfs is a bit buggy. I will fix it soon and then firefox and thunderbird will work also.

for all those who have a C3000/C3100/C1000, the automounter package will be able to mount the cramfs images for you automatically after reboot. it might work for other models too, but untested. any volunteers for c8x0/c7x0?

Hello MEANIE

Ok i will test it on my C860

btw have you read my post,


as you are updating the xqt cramfs
i wonder if you can add a feature for changing the menu fonts of gtk applications
to work with confort i think the best size is 16 or 18 style Bold helvitica

here are some informations may be useful

in the site web below related to the fluxbox documentation
[a href=\"http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq...#gnome-settings]http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq...#gnome-settings[/url]

in the FAQ section here is the answer
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: Gtk2/Gnome2 applications look wired under Fluxbox, but they look ok when gnome is started

Answer:Run gnome-settings-daemon when Fluxbox starts, eg. put this into your ~/.xinitrc

#load this to have gtk2 apps look ok
GSDPID=`pidof gnome-settings-daemon`
if [ "x$GSDPID" == "x" ]; then
gnome-settings-daemon &
fi

If you don't have gnome installed you can use gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So my questions are

1- is this answer the right one
2-is gnome-settings-daemon installed in the xqt cramfs
3- is gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher installed in the xqt crmafs
4- and finally if no one is installed is it possible to install one of them

here is the link to gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher
http://www.muhri.net/nav.php3?node=gts

it seems that it exists an debian arm package as in the link below

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/gt...eme-switch.html

waiting you opinion    

Cheers

[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=88807\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

First novel? Anything published?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=88819\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

got a few stories published already on some specialty sites.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=88851\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
So, come ON, man! Don't play coy on us. Spill the beans already on where we can get these stories to read. (G)

SF is one of my main addictions, and I bet that goes for a whole lot of us here!

in the meantime, i am trying to decide what else to add to the xqt-apps cramfs.
maybe some of datajerk's compiled apps if he doesn't mind.


[div align=\"right\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Hi all

Meanie
could you add this useful application (i was using under pdaxrom)which is Tuxcards:
the developper described it as follow:
TuxCards is a hierarchical notebook. That was created out of the desire to let my own chaos of papers, notes, and post-it's vanish. Those items are useful but the chaos I produced was not.
Through a friend I got to know CueCards; this is a really nice program that exists for Windows. Since I am using Linux almost permanently, I got the idea to write a similar tool for myself and let every Linux/Unix user share it.
here is a screenshoot
 [ Invalid Attachment ]
here is the link to the home page
[a href=\"http://www.tuxcards.de/]http://www.tuxcards.de/[/url]
and here is the link to the ipk in pdaxrom
http://www.pdaxrom.org/unstable/tuxcards_1.1_arm.ipk
or
http://www.pdaxrom.org/unstable/tuxcards_1.1_armv5tel.ipk

i tried to install it  directly on xqt i didn't succes


thanks
