Jumbo Xqt Package
« Reply #105 on: July 21, 2005, 06:27:13 pm »
Hi

I installed xqt-gtk-jumbopack_0.4.3-0.6_arm.ipk

The zaurus seemed to hang, so after 10 mins I rebooted it, the XQT is there and seems to work, but I'm afraid I messed it up and didn't want to move on straight away.

I'm on a C1000. I wanted to install this to the SD, but that didn't work, so then tried to internal memory.

Any and all advice gratefully received.

I hightly doubt that you can install some 40M or 90M or whatever size it was in internal memory, unless you have nothing else installed.

I am attempting that option as we speak.

I spent the whole night installing and learning a few things about this software.  I started fresh and now am attempting to reinstall something that takes me around 24 hours to configure and then i will see if i can fit xqt into my main memory with all my softwares installed.I have 8 hours so far of installing software on my default zaurus---and a few more left to go.  After i am done installing as much as i can to the sd, i will see if i can squeeze xqt into main memory with a couple of softwares.  Then i will tell you if i can do it.  I dont know about the rest of you guys!

After re-downloading debian file it installed OK and Debian/IceWM opens and looks great!

Thanks Meanie!

Meanwhile, I wanted to update Debian using apt-get...but have had problem so far...

First, I connected to internet using Qtopia/Network along with my Socket ethernet card.
Tested that I could get online by using NetFront browser. Can surf OK...

Second, in Debian/eterm window, did 'apt-get update'...got the following messages:

Code: [Select]
#apt-get update
Err http://ftp.debian.org testing/Main Package
Temporary failure resolving 'ftp.debian.org'
Err http://ftp.debian.org testing/Main Release

Failed to fetch http:/ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/binary-arm/Packages.gz

Yada Yada Yada....

SO my question is....Is this problem just related to something on the Debian servers or something with my setup??

Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to install this onto my poodle (5600), so I don't know if it's even possible. I've successfully installed & configred the package, but I get the following errors:

Code: [Select]
[zaurus@grond]<~/Install_Files/watapon/xqt>$ sudo ipkg -d card install xqt-gtk-jumbopack_0.4.3-0.6_arm.ipk

X/Qt installed sucessfully.
Done.
After using ipkg-link successfully & restarting qtopia, I have the tab & all the icons, but nothing happens when I hit the startx icon, so I started some command line testing & edited the startx-wrapper, replacing the hdd3 references to point to the ext2 partition of my sd card (where the package is installed). It still failed after running the startx script.

So I edited the startx script to properly assign the hostname (the hostname command is linked to busybox in my rom which doesn't recognoze the '-f' switch). Finally it got the the end but failed finding librarys:

Code: [Select]
[...snip...]
+ xauth list :0
+ grep ':0 '
xauth: error while loading shared libraries: libXmuu.so.1: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory

+ xauth remove grond:0 :0
xauth: error while loading shared libraries: libXmuu.so.1: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
+ command -v deallocvt
+ deallocvt
I found a libXmuu.so.1.0 library linked under /opt/QtPalmtop/libs, so I linked that to ibXmuu.so.1, but still the same error. I'm not a unix programmer, so I'm not sure where xinit & xauth are looking for libs, but all the other *X* libs are in that same directory, so I can't be far off .

Any helpful tips? Am I just missing a package?
Thanks in advance

Never had a poodle before so not sure how much different it is, but it seems like all the binaries installed successfully, however, the postinstall script failed due to things being in different locations.
you might need to edit the scripts and rerun them, in particular xqtliblinks which creates all the required symlinks

xqtliblinks assumes all the libraries have been installed to /opt/QtPalmtop/lib (which is a symlink itself on my Spitz)
 and creates additional symlinks for each of the installed libraries.
since i do not have ipkg-link i do not know exactly what it does, but i assume it relinks everything in /opt/QtPalmtop/lib to the location on your SD card?
if that's so then simply rerunning xqtliblinks might just fix it for you, but if not, then you might have to update xqtliblinks manually to make it link to the right location for your poodle.
good luck

It's resolv.conf that's causing you grief. Depending on your network settings, it might get updated each time you connect to the net. But Debian has a copy of resolv.conf at when you installed (I guess you weren't connected to the net at that point)
need to copy /etc/resolv.conf to .../debroot/etc/resolv.conf each time your network settings change

i'll look into binding that file so it just uses the same copy of resolv.conf

Thanks, Meanie. That makes sense...

However, just tried to copy file like you suggest and now keyboard is not working right all of a sudden...when I try to type in characters using the C3K keyboard nothing happens.... ....very strange!

Also, noticed that Perseus posted earlier today about keyboard issues too....

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Mark

My objective is to get Firefox and Thunderbird running on my C1000.

Sorry to be dumb with this but I have installed the X/Qt jumbo package to Internal Memory on my C1000. It appears as installed in Package Manager but there is no X/Qt tab.

I have tried rebooting but it makes no difference.

I have not installed any of the Debian packages.

Should I be doing something else?

Hi there,

I seem to have X/QT working fine on my C1000 despite the earlier hiccup. So am happy that I've gotten that far. Meanie's great site is C3000 centric and having a C1000 and an SD card, am not 100% sure what to change, this has always been the part of linux that scares me!

At least you have it working.

I got the error message “This package seems to depend on other packages. Please install them too.”

Did you install anything else apart from the X/Qt jumbo package, I wonder?

Abiword not working on a C3000
I have installed everything and firefox is working fine (after running it as a root couple of times).
But I tried installing abiword.
There was a message complaining about missing dependencies.
When I launch it complains about missing libraries.
I installed the one from PDAXROM that is mentioned on
http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/jumbo/xqtjumbo.html
Any ideas how to fix?

I got the same message too. It sure would be nice if the installer would tell you what those dependencies were, right?

I don't know if this is one of the dependencies for X/Qt jumbo, but one that I found for the Debian/Pocketworkstation install which I didn't have was the sudo package.

Archi Mark,

The keyboard not working is a result of pressing one of the shift keys (right I think) plus the / key. I tried every key plus the / key to get it working. And my keyboard stopped working. It came back on its own after a while and or a reboot.

However, the / key still does not work. All I get is the letter d when I type / key.

The wireless can be solved if you remove debian (per instructions by meanie on this thread) or doing option 3 then 1 in the ok menu. I had a similar problem. Reinstalled and the internet connection is working again.

Still having problems with the keyboard. Anyone have a solution?

Thanks.

Thanks for the info, Perseus!

Yes, same thing happened to me regarding the keys/keyboard issue...very strange...and like you I have not been able to figure out how to type a '/'...makes like difficult!

Must be a keymapping issue with that 'xmodmap' (or something like that...) file???

Like you would like to get the keyboard situation straightened out....

Will try what you say about the wireless situation...

Thanks,

Mark
